The puzzles might have been solvable without using scissors, but given the theme it would be just wrong to play without getting into the physical construction.

You're investigating the old notes of Doctor Frankenstein to retrace the method with ...

We had a bit of a love/hate relationship with this game. The idea is great, but we struggled on a few puzzles. Either way, if we’re going away for a break sometime, I could see us taking a couple puzzle books with us.
