If you love learning new puzzles but find written instructions a bit dry (or just fancy a change), we’ve got good news: our puzzle tutorials now come with video!
That’s right, we’ve been quietly building a growing library of step-by-step videos to go alongside the written guides on our site. In each one, Ashley walks you through a puzzle from start to finish, first explaining the rules, then solving it live, all while sharing her thinking out loud.
It’s like sitting beside a very calm, very clever friend who talks you through exactly what to do, and why. Perfect if you learn better by watching than reading, or if you just enjoy a bit of company while you puzzle.
Try it out: Head to any of our tutorial pages and you’ll see the videos embedded right there. Or browse the full collection on our YouTube channel here: Puzzle Genius on YouTube
And if you’re itching to get solving, don’t worry – every tutorial includes a free printable download of puzzles and solutions so you can put your new skills to the test straight away.
We’re adding new videos regularly, so do check back often (or better yet, subscribe on YouTube so you never miss one).
