Assembly Instructions
The BePuzzled 3D Crystal Puzzles are designed with uniquely shaped, interlocking translucent pieces. Assembly typically involves connecting these pieces in a specific sequence to form the three-dimensional figure. Patience and careful handling are key to a successful build.
- Identify Core Pieces: Begin by identifying the central pieces that form the core structure of Snoopy and Woodstock. These often serve as the foundation for the rest of the puzzle.
- Interlock Pieces: Gently interlock the pieces. Avoid excessive force, as the pieces are delicate. If a piece does not fit easily, re-examine its shape and orientation.
- Build Layer by Layer: Many 3D crystal puzzles are built in layers. Follow the natural contours and connections of the pieces to gradually form the figure.
- Utilize Visual Aids: If you encounter difficulty, refer to the images on the product packaging or seek online step-by-step solutions provided by BePuzzled/University Games.
- Secure the Base: Once Snoopy and Woodstock are assembled, carefully attach them to the provided pink heart-shaped base.

Maintenance
- Cleaning: To clean your assembled puzzle, gently wipe it with a soft, dry cloth. Avoid using abrasive cleaners or harsh chemicals, as these may scratch or damage the translucent plastic.
- Storage: Store the puzzle in a stable location away from direct sunlight or extreme temperatures to prevent discoloration or warping of the plastic pieces.
Troubleshooting
Pieces Not Fitting
If pieces do not seem to fit, ensure you are not applying excessive force. The pieces are designed to interlock smoothly. Re-examine the piece's shape and the corresponding slot. Sometimes rotating a piece 180 degrees can resolve the issue. Refer to the visual guides or online solutions if available.
