Puzzle Palace

How it works

Easy as 1, 2, 3.

Free, with no due dates. Just puzzles passing from one table to the next.
  1. 1

    Pick one you love

    Browse by piece count and theme. First visit? Take one, no trade needed.

  2. 2

    Puzzle at your own pace

    Take it home and enjoy it. There is no rush.

  3. 3

    Bring one back when you're done

    Return it or trade in another: complete, in its original box.

House rules

Keeping the Palace happy

  • Take one any time

    The Palace is open 24/7. On your first visit, just take one. No trade needed.

  • Bring back complete puzzles

    Return puzzles in their original box with every piece. If a piece or two is missing, write it on the lid so the next person knows.

  • Bag the pieces

    A zip bag inside the box keeps pieces from spilling onto the shelf.

  • Skip damaged boxes

    Please don't leave puzzles that are damp, musty, smoky, or falling apart.

  • If it's full, try again soon

    The shelves are small. If there's no room, hang on to your puzzle and swap another day.

  • Close the door

    Latch the door all the way so rain and critters stay out.
