Starting with bronze

As suggested by the interwebz - if you are only going to buy one get the bronze

Hopefully I can get through it without the aid of learning the basic mechanics on the blue or even a green

Looking forward to weeks or more of fun and pain!

Why do my hobbies always have to cost so much... I can see this being very addictive

Bronze won't be the last and only Revomaze you'll buy.
Promised!

I followed that same guide...

I know. I am already actively seeking a used green/saving for a new one.

All right. Who ever was working on Saturday, thank you...?

We are not used to such service here. Working on a holiday weekend??

My tracking info shows it was actively being handled Saturday and Sunday then left the country.

That person deserves a raise...

My first Revos were delivered from England to my doorstep in Texas in just three days... and on the way they visited Germany. I've never had a package from Europe arrive so fast.

Well I'm waiting but not so patiently.
I've solved everything here including the nice new puzzle box I got. That was all of 3 minutes... Almost a waste but fun with the kids and it looks nice I suppose

I fiddled with my bronze a bit and got stuck in the pool. I've spent an hour wading around and found no exit yet. I think I can promise it won't be a 3 minute puzzle ;)

That was what I was aiming for, but I have a funny feeling I got more than I bargained for!

That's what I thought when I ordered the Indigo. It seems like I was so damn wrong. But instead of getting an Aqua or Blue I ordered a Bronze. Sadly, mine hasn't left the country yet, but since I have an Indigo to think about and fiddle with every couple of hours, the wait isn't as painful.

Before my Indigo arrived I tried to compensate the lust for a challenge with a couple of Hanayamas. That didn't help much since those are solved way too easily. So I feel your pain. Once you decide to go Revo there is a weird emptiness before its delivery.

Once you get it that painful impatience is replaced by painful cluelessness. ;)

Mines in my country but no update since last night.. I'm hoping to have it before the weekend.
I want that sense of cluelessness. There have been several puzzles through my life that drove me nuts. I have no idea why but I want that feeling and I want to stretch it! My wife thinks I'm crazy...
