Review on History Time Puzzle by 4D Cityscape by John Hattalli

Revainrating 3 out of 5

It's fun but not satisfying

I liked putting the puzzle together, but left the final stages of assembling buildings/structures for a few weeks. One reason is that the plastic parts were so small that they were difficult for the elderly to read. Another reason is that in many cases their shapes do not match the structures they represent. The Hollywood Sign looks like a mountainside with nothing on it. Las Vegas was the flag block and that was the only part that actually broke. To me, it would be more interesting if the puzzle map included Native American tribal areas instead of city names. Instead of highlighting buildings, you might want to highlight historical events at those locations. But there are many more things to learn using this puzzle as a base. If you use this as a learning tool, I would recommend it as a fun method. Learn the geography and history of the United States. I will pack ours and send them to my grandson.

Pros
  • Durable test results
Cons
  • Good overall, but...
