This volume of “The Original Area Mazes (Volume 2)” was quite enjoyable for me. Given my level of geometric insight (intuition) – which is not impressive – I found that this book was difficult enough for me to be very rewarding (oftentimes rather challenging), and I solved all the 100 problems without any help from the explanations in the back of the book.

I had already done Volume 1 of the book with this title. Both books were, for me, an intriguing way to challenge my aging brain. This sort of puzzle book is, for me, the most enjoyable puzzle book I’ve ever encountered. For those who want to test – and maybe challenge – their spatial reasoning abilities and sharpen their elementary mathematical skills, this book might be the ideal one to buy. Solving such puzzles can be a good way of sharpening your thinking skills. It’s challenging and fun. I would recommend it to spatial/logical/mathematical puzzle lovers.

Area mazes are deceptively easy - using only whole numbers, simple math, and logic you have to find the missing value - either a length, width, or area of a rectangle attached to other rectangles (some with their given info and some without). Just as fun, addictive, and challenging as the first volume! I do hope there are more in the future :-)
