Love, love, love these books!

I discovered the Two Not Touch puzzles in the New York Times. After struggling mightily to figure out how to work them, I fell in love. I bought two books (I'm back here to buy more) and the explanations the author provides are great and would have shortened my learning curve. If you have not been introduced to these puzzles, or you have and find them frustrating, try one of the books and use the logic instructions to help you. Once you do you will also fall in love! These are pure, unadulterated logic puzzles. No math, no trivia, no anything but logic.

I also have the app, which I love, but I am back to buy more books because I find it more satisfying to solve on paper in the evenings as I am relaxing before bed. Be aware that you will need a supply of sharp pencils and a really good eraser if you go this route!

Nice pastime and brain workout!

I love these puzzles, use them on the website at bedtime instead of counting sheep, and otherwise any time that needs killing. Online I gravitate toward the one star version and do the two star version in the NYT. Either way, no words, no numbers, just pure logic, a workout for the brain. Got the book to give as a gift and to support the author.

I like the online timer, but after the first minute it reports only minutes. I wish it would report seconds as well.

The learning curve was steep and fun in this Krazydad puzzle book. I love problem solving with pure logic, so loved discovering Bumgardner’s Two Not Touch puzzles in the New York Times this year. His Volume 1 Krazydad is a blast. As I learned to recognize patterns in the game, I was able to complete the first 100 or so. But by 250 - 300, I’m struggling. So satisfying when I finally figure some of these challenges.
Great fun in 2020. Who knew?

The best de-stressor for these Covid-19 times you could ever have wished for!
Easy ones for when I'm exhausted, tougher ones for when I'm feeling game.
FIVE STARS.

It's the best new game and diversion I've found.

Reviewed in the United States on October 7, 2020

Two Not Touch isn't a roll off the tongue name for a game, but it's addictive and a great escape. All ages, if you like challenging yourself, figuring out patterns with logic, a game that you don't need to look up stuff when you get stuck, this is great. Thank you for creating this game, it's saving my sanity these days.
