Jungle Hide & Seek is exciting, mind-boggling fun wrapped in a deceptively simple challenge: place 4 different-shaped puzzle pieces on the game board in such a way as to hide images of all animals except the ones shown on the challenge selected. With 80 challenges to choose from, ranging in difficulty from easy to expert, that's a lot of tasty brain food. There are many ways the pieces can fit on the board, but just one solution that reveals only the animals from a given challenge. There are numerous methods for solving the puzzles - trial and error, process of elimination, systematic analysis, any and all of the above. Each player tends to develop his or her own approach, but what they share in common is the joy of the chase, the thrill of closing in on a solution. The game board is double-sided. One side is divided into quadrants (making for somewhat more bite-sized challenges), while the other is a single, larger rectangular space that further deepens the challenge.
