In this part of the
AgeOfPuzzles.com I'd like to present some puzzle & game
projects which I designed fully or developed challenges
to them (whole sets or just a few puzzles), or helped to
improve designs made by other authors, or co-worked in a
team. Some of these puzzles still can be bought directly
from the respective manufacturers through their
websites; see their links shown next to each puzzle.
Also, they are sold at
AreYouGame.com,
Imaginarium.com,
TORITO Puzzle Shop, and many other places both in
virtual and real stores. To find out where to buy a
certain puzzle you may use some searching engine like
Google,

AltaVista, and similar. Search by puzzle's name and
manufacturer.
