On the Amazon platform, consumers rate the puzzle games from Goods+Gadgets® with an average of 4.4 stars. One common criticism is that some games have a crack in the outer shell. Many customers like the appealing and versatile design of the different games and the challenge they offer. The fact that the games are suitable for all age groups and are great fun is particularly emphasised. In our practical test, we were able to confirm that the user-friendliness and variety of the games are excellent, but that the packaging could be a little more robust.
Prices of up to €40 are charged on the Internet for equivalent products. Very cheap products are available from as little as €7.99 . The puzzles from Goods+Gadgets® are therefore currently in the lower price segment with a price of €14.95. For the quality and performance received, the price-performance ratio is very good.
