Julien Delval is perhaps most well known for his beautiful and exquisitely detailed illustrations that appear on many fantasy book covers for adults and teens. Julien is also a sought-after illustrator for board games, which is how this particular puzzle came to be. Malédiction was originally the cover art for a now out-of-print game by Alea-Ravensburger in Germany. The timely resuscitation of this thematic cover art seemed a perfect fit for a Halloween-themed puzzle.
Whimsies for this puzzle are themed around sorcery, alchemy and creatures associated with Halloween. Clever puzzlers may also find all the necessary "ingredients" to make their own Feature Creature!

We absolutely love your puzzles. We received our first one from our son, then we bought one for ourselves, then bought one for our son-in-law. We are all hooked on these puzzles and trade them with our family.
CanadaIncredible!
Loved this puzzle ... spectacular whimsies. Loved the colouring of the puzzle. Challenging and addicting to see the picture develop. Has been built twice and there will be many more days of fun ahead doing it again and again. Bewitching!!
CanadaFantastic Puzzle!
I love that the picture is so clear, and found it more challenging since the colours are similar on most peices. I will definitely enjoy redoing this puzzle in the future.
United KingdomStunning artwork
An intriguing and mysterious picture with so much detail and ‘goings on’. Super whimsies - and well worth turning the puzzle over on completion to have a good look at the,. Again - the special wooden box makes it a real extra joy to keep and make again and again…
