How Flipsi Works

Build the front. Flip the finished puzzle. Discover a second artwork hidden on the back.

That's the whole idea, and this page walks you through it. Without spoiling a thing.

Go on. Flip it.

How Flipsi works

Puzzle. Flip. Surprise.

Puzzle

Build the artwork on the front of the box. 500 pieces, matte finish, made to be lingered over.

Flip

Turn the whole finished puzzle over. Easiest with a Flipsi Board, but two gentle corners will do it.

Surprise

The back reveals a second scene, hidden until now, that deepens the story you just built.

A printed Flipsi puzzle piece, textured front.
The smooth back of the same puzzle piece.
You can feel the difference

Textured front. Smooth secret side.

Both sides are printed with original artwork, but the pieces feel different. The front is lightly textured; the secret side is smooth. So you can sort them by touch alone.

The Flipsi Board

The easy way to flip.

You don't need a Board. Two gentle corners will do it. But one smooth move is hard to give up.

The red velvet lined Board holds the finished puzzle together: build in it, close it over, turn the whole thing at once. It also keeps a half built puzzle safe between evenings.

Want the Board and three puzzles together? Flipsi Plus bundles them and saves $15 USD.

You've reached the end without a single spoiler. That deserves a door: the story of the first secret we ever hid. How Flipsi began →

Curiosity, rewarded

We never show the other side. That moment is yours.

Not in our photos. Not on this page. The secret stays hidden until it's on your table.

Good questions

Everything else answered.

What exactly is a Flipsi puzzle?

A 500 piece double sided jigsaw. One artwork is on the front, the picture on the box. A second, related artwork is printed on the back, revealed only once you have built it and flipped it over.

Why 500 pieces?

We tested a lot of sizes. 500 is big enough to be a satisfying build, but small enough to flip over comfortably in one move.

Do I need the Flipsi Board?

No. You can flip a Flipsi with two gentle corners, or between two pieces of card. The Board just makes it effortless, and keeps your puzzle safe between sessions.

Will I be able to tell which side is which?

Yes. The front pieces feel slightly textured and the secret side is smooth, so you can sort them by touch alone.

Do you spoil the secret side anywhere?

Never. Not in photos, not on product pages, not in ads. The reveal is the whole point, and it belongs to your table.
