World Jigsaw Puzzle Championship 2025 by Jean Jullien - 500 Piece Jigsaw Puzzle (Ravensburger)

Everyone in this crowd is holding a jagged black shape, and it takes a second look to realise they're all pieces of the same puzzle. Jean Jullien's flat, bold illustration style turns a room full of solvers into the picture itself, with a pale blue jigsaw-shaped igloo sitting right in the middle of the chaos.

It's a fun one to sort by colour rather than image, since so many of the pieces are jet black with just a scattering of white dots. The surrounding crowd is where the detail lives: mismatched jumpers, odd expressions, someone mid-yawn near the back.

A nice pick if you like your puzzles a bit different, or if you're already deep into this year's championship season and fancy a puzzle about puzzling.
