    What do you think? Are you going to get a custom Krypt puzzle? What color will you get? Make sure to read the description for links to everything I talked about!
  • @ScreemBean
    y'know what might be fun to do? Mix the pieces of two of these Krypt puzzles together, and then assemble the two puzzles with all the pieces facing down! (no peeking!) At then at end, you can flip the finished puzzles over and see the patterns that emerge!
  • @aartadventure
    It's cute watching Karen's mental gymnastics during this puzzle as she flips from "I hate this puzzle!" to "This isn't very hard" to "This will take me weeks" to "I might finish this in just 6 hours" to "The cut really helps" to "This cut is surprisingly tricky" etc etc
  • @L2Sentinel
    Who would have thought you would go from "never again" to solving it three times in one video? What a journey! I love when you swap puzzle pieces with the same cut. The gradient and pink puzzles look so pretty together.
  • Yoooo. We solved the black crypt puzzle and then used it as our wedding guestbook! I could totally see other people using the custom colors to do the same thing for special occasions like that! Super cool.
  • @thomasmcd
    It looks like there are 16,777,216 possible Hex Colors... so the cost of owning all possible custom Krypts would be $553,480,356. I think it is time to add a new Patreon tier!!
  • @lauinra
    New video idea: meal prepping many non-sticky snacks for your next too challenging puzzles 😂 though I can totally relate to the ultra focus state...
  • @WolfLykaios
    hmm. Something crazy that we as a community could do, is to buy 631 different hexadecimal shades/colors and then each mail a unique individual piece to Karen, coordinated over a spreadsheet, and that way we could have a gradient of pinks, oranges, reds, etc., or a mixture thereof. EDIT: Wow. A lot of people seem up for this! That's it, Karen start organizing this!
  • @Chaotic_Pixie
    The blush and gradient Krypts mixed like that... hung vertical and side by side is like... modern art deco art? AMAZING! 10/10 would frame and hang on the wall!
  • @Saudade_Ana
    The clicking sound of the pieces being put together is so satisfying every single time
  • @SimonDonkers
    At 8 hours per puzzle, for all the HEX colors it’s just 15 millennia of continues puzzling. I’m sure you’d get faster halfway through them. Great work on the Pink puzzle, and loved you on Tom Scott’s new podcast. You had a great Lateral thinking question.
  • @cowoljarwoff
    I did the silver Krypt a couple of weeks ago. It took about 40 hours of puzzling time, which of course sounds crazy, but I am not a puzzler! So I'm very proud to have finished it at all. Especially considering I didn't use any kind of guide. I specifically chose to not even LOOK at the pattern. Also I had NO room to spread out many of the pieces, as I live in a tiny unit and don't own a table 😂 Edit: OMG yes, I had a few false fits in the silver. Very annoying. Some fit perfectly where they shouldn't have.
  • Ahh I'd been looking forward to seeing that gradient krypt come together for a while!! Super cool video. And, just for the record, I actually do prefer it when you're doing puzzles you like instead of puzzles that exasperate you
  • @Emmuzka
    A side note: The metal box that the custom crypt puzzle uses looks amazing!
  • I always hated puzzles growing up, but this channel has really changed my mind. I love doing online puzzles now, and I really want to get my first physical, real puzzle soon. The gradient krypt puzzle seems like such a good option, I just wish it didn't have that weird rectangle shape interrupting the spiral! Either way, I'm so excited. Thank you for guiding me to a new hobby, Karen!!!
  • @Chaotic_Pixie
    You were on Lateral this Friday!!! You kicked butt as I knew you would if you ever went on. Way to go... making us puzzlers proud! Also, not sure who I envy more... you getting to hang with Tom or Tom getting to hang with you. Two of my favorite brains interacting together. Also, the gradient Krypt was one of the gifts I got around the holidays. I'm so excited for it!
  • @NijiRanger
    There is in fact a fourth krypt cut now! It's 881 pieces, and so far exists only as a glow in the dark starry sky print, called "Universe Glow". Also there is a version of "silver" (654 pieces), called "Color Spiral" or "Colorful Spiral". It's a shame to hear the custom colour krypts are only "gold", it's my least favourite cut. (the gradient version is an exception ofc) Silver feels like the easiest to me, and i enjoy black the most. Pink <3
  • @SprongBobbles
    What I love about this video is watching Karen get more and more excited about the puzzle as the day went on. It’s so apparent that she filmed after the sun went down which she doesn’t prefer doing since sunlight is better.
  • I gasped when you did the piece swaps between the pink and gradient puzzles! Wow! Sooo pretty and such a cool Timelapse ✨
  • Funny, i attempt all krypt puzzles like you did with the pink one. Sort the pieces like you did, start with the center until it's not going anymore and switch to the edge. But i go back and forth multiple times in the process. 😄 So cool that you can order krypt puzzles in your favorite color now...I'm actually tempted 🤗 also i love love love the gradient krypt, so beautiful 🥰 i solved it twice so far
