Brain Games - Einstein Puzzles: Flex Your Brain with More Than 190 Word and Number Puzzles

The very first puzzle, a classic called "Einstein's Zebra," has a glaring error. It fails to ask two required questions that are needed to solve it. (1) Who has the Zebra? And (2) who drinks water? I followed the instructions presented in the book. But, when I finished, I had two empty answers and no explanation. That's when I consulted a search engine for Einstein's Zebra and verified that, if the questions had been asked correctly in the instructions, my solution would have been perfect.After reading other 1 and 2-star reviews of this book, I found several indictments of this book, citing errors that make certain puzzles unsolvable. Armed with this knowledge, I will approach each puzzle with the realization that the solution may be impossible — and that's an answer, too.Could be a fun challenge. Ergo, 5-stars.

This is exactly what I was looking for. Perfect entertainment for my teen.

Same types of puzzles over and over. Too may errors and many puzzles missing vital clues to solve or clues that are obviously wrong. I love Brain Games puzzle books and have worked over a dozen, but this one will be tossed after barely completing half of the puzzles. Not their best, in my opinion.

The very first puzzle has errors in the form of missing clues (there is no mention of zebra and water in the logic puzzle yet they appear in the solution). Based on similar reviews citing errors, I will be returning the book.

It has challenging puzzles but I guess it has pattern of about 10-13 puzzles and then it just keep on repeating with little higher complexity. Would have been nice if it had all different puzzles without duplication allowing more guesswork to solve puzzles.
