Puzzles are an excellent source of entertainment that cost next to nothing. When compared to other forms of entertainment, cent to cent puzzles provide the most enjoyment. Free jigsaw puzzles, crosswords and anagrams are easily accessible and can keep a person occupied for hours.

Most people, who have a 9 to 6 job, often love to complete crossword puzzles on their way to office. Puzzles do not require any elaborate preparation or requirements to indulge in and can be done anywhere any time.

With the increasing availability of puzzle games on smartphones, finding puzzles to pass the time has become much easier. Jig saw puzzles seem very easy at first; however the complication of the puzzle can only be realized after one has spent a few hours hopelessly trying to join the missing pieces. Jigsaw puzzles are just as popular among adults as they are with kids.

One completing a puzzle might try to beat their previous best time. It is this attitude that keeps the excitement of puzzles alive, such as completing a Rubik's cube hundreds of times.

The best part about these puzzles is that there is no need to follow or learn instructions. Even kids who have never seen a jigsaw puzzle in their life will begin playing without any instructions. There is little need for familiarization with the rules and regulations, since there is no way to cheat.
