Loving it! I’m going to repurchase to gift to unsuspecting victims. 🕵🏻‍♂️

Surprised my mom for Christmas

Bought this for my mom as a little Christmas surprise. She thought it was a fun gift. She likes word searches anyway and it’s a little nostalgic too.

Fun

My roommate loves pranks so I got him this as a birthday gift, he spent an hour looking at the first page before realising that his name appears only once in the entire book. 😂😈 Now he's planning on buying one for this girlfriend. The fun is well worth it.

Happy son

I bought this for my 8 year old son. He's been totally caught up in trying to find his name on santa’s list and I love to see him focus and giggle every time he spots his own name.

Way more personal than I expected

I bought this for my brother because he loves escape rooms and little mystery things. He figured out what was happening about three pages in and started laughing. It felt very specific to him, which is exactly what I wanted.

Good gift for someone hard to buy for

My dad is impossible to shop for. This worked.

The evil mode is actually evil

I picked the hardest option as a joke. It was maybe too much of a joke. My husband is still looking for his name, so I guess it worked. I probably should have chosen the middle setting, but also it is funny watching him refuse to give up.

A quiet little hit at Christmas

This got passed around after dinner. Everyone wanted to try finding the hidden name, even people who normally don't care about puzzles. It was nice because it did not need a big explanation or app or anything. You just open the book and start looking.

Simple idea, really well done

Simple idea, but that is kind of the charm.

Took a little explaining

My mum did not understand the idea at first, but once she found her name on the first page she was into it. I would maybe include a clearer note with the gift next time. After that first page though, she completely got it and started checking every grid like it was a newspaper puzzle.

Great for puzzle people

My girlfriend does word searches when she wants to switch off. This made the whole thing feel less random and more like something made for her. She noticed the cover first, then the hidden-name thing a minute later, which was a fun little two-stage reaction.

Surprisingly addictive

I ordered it for my niece and ended up doing a few pages myself before wrapping it. Not my proudest moment, but there we are. The repeated letters make it weirdly hypnotic.

Looks premium

The design has a nice mystery-book feel. It didn't look like something I made in five minutes online, which is always the danger with personalized gifts. The person I gave it to assumed I found it in a small bookstore, so that is a win.

Fun, but choose the page count wisely

I went with the bigger version and it is genuinely a lot of puzzles.

Birthday gift landed perfectly

My friend likes detective novels, so this was right in the pocket. He sent me a photo when he found the first hidden name. Then another one ten minutes later. Then one more the next morning. So yes, he liked it.

Better than another mug

I needed a small but thoughtful anniversary extra. This was much more memorable than the usual safe gifts. It is not a huge dramatic present, but it has that nice feeling of being made for one specific person.

Quite a clever idea

It sounds almost too simple when you describe it, but when you see the pages it clicks.

Good quality, shipping took a bit

The book itself was great. It arrived later than I hoped, but it was still in time and the personalization was correct. I was nervous because it was for a party, but it made it.

Lovely for a retirement gift

We made one for a colleague who does puzzles every morning. It felt personal without being too sentimental, and the office all signed the inside cover. She noticed the name on the cover immediately, but the bigger reaction came when someone pointed out that the puzzles were built around it too.

I wish I ordered hardcover

The softcover is nice, but after seeing it I kind of regret not upgrading. The idea feels gift-y enough that hardcover would have suited it. That is on me, not the book.

My grandma loved it

She does word searches every week and immediately understood the assignment. She called me the next day to tell me she found her name six times. Very wholesome, honestly.

A proper personalized gift

A lot of personalized stuff just slaps a name on the front. This actually uses the name in the whole book, which makes a big difference. It feels like the personalization is the point, not an afterthought.

Feels like a small mystery

The case file framing makes it more fun than a normal word search book. It gives you a reason to keep turning pages. I bought it as a novelty, but it has more replay value than I expected.

Would buy again

I got one for Secret Santa and it was the gift people talked about most. Ordering another for a birthday soon. The best part was that it worked for the whole group for a few minutes, not just the person opening it.
