Many jigsaw puzzles are fully interlocking which means that adjacent pieces of the puzzle are connecting in such a way as to secure the pieces in place, avoiding mishaps of pieces coming apart once they have been solved. The pieces are interlocked so they fit tightly together and can be easily moved if necessary. When you look for interlocking pieces so once you solve the pieces they stay in place.
Many of the interlocking ones have pieces that are shaped exactly the same. This makes the jigsaw puzzle more complex to solve making it even more important for the pieces solved to stay in position. When you buy jigsaw puzzles with pieces that are similar in shape they normally have rounded tabs out on opposite ends, with related blanks tabs cut into the sides. This configuration adds extra holding power to the interlocking pieces and provides an additional level of complexity to solving them.
Other interlocking ones have pieces that have tabs and blanks arranged in varying intervals on each piece, all of them with four sides so they all have two tabs and two blanks. These uniform-shaped jigsaw puzzle pieces are fully interlocking and are normally the most difficult jigsaw puzzles to solve. The difficulty stems from the fact that the shapes are all very similar and harder to distinguish one from the other. The differences of each piece are usually so subtle and ever so slightly unique, that the person solving the puzzle must have extensive patience and focus to locate and assemble this type of jigsaw puzzle.
There are some interlocking them that are developed for children. The difficulty levels when you buy jigsaw puzzles for children are much less than those you would normally purchase for an experienced puzzle solver. No matter what jigsaw puzzle you buy or what level puzzle solver you have become, jigsaw puzzles are a fun and entertaining hobby.
