**Exploring the Umbrella Spectrum: A Colorful Puzzle Journey**


I recently had the opportunity to dive into a delightful puzzle experience with the **Umbrella Spectrum** 500-piece jigsaw puzzle by Mustafa Tayfun Ozcan, part of Buffalo Games’ Diverse Artists Series. Having never tried a Buffalo Games puzzle before, I was excited to see what the fuss was about, especially since this puzzle was featured in a competition at Fantasy Books & Games.

The vibrant scene depicted in **Umbrella Spectrum** features a charming Istanbul street adorned with a kaleidoscope of rainbow umbrellas suspended above. It’s a whimsical image that immediately draws you in and makes the puzzle-solving experience even more enjoyable.


Buffalo Games touts its signature Perfect Snap™ technology, which promises a tight interlocking fit between puzzle pieces. While I wouldn’t go so far as to say it’s perfect, I can certainly attest that the quality was higher than many other puzzle brands I’ve encountered. As a nice touch, they also include a bonus puzzle poster, providing a handy reference for what the completed artwork should look like as you piece it together.


When finished, this puzzle measures 21.25 x 15 inches, making it a satisfying size to display or enjoy as a completed work of art.


Overall, considering the price, I found the Umbrella Spectrum puzzle to be a thoroughly enjoyable experience that brought a splash of color and creativity to my puzzle collection. If you’re looking for a fun and engaging puzzle to work on, I highly recommend giving it a try!
