What Makes It Uncommon

Do you love logic problems? Are you crazy for crosswords? Do you get caught up in escape rooms? Then these mind-bending books will leave you pleasantly perplexed. Created by a mysterious figure known only as "M," each captivating collection is a glimpse into minds of The Master Theorem, a secret society of geniuses who indulged themselves in cyphers, puzzles, and code-breaking. Are you up to the challenge?

  • Choose the Original version, with 40 unique brain teasers (a.k.a. theorems) or the Elite edition that packs 40+ puzzles for intermediate to expert-level adventurers.
  • Designed to look like mystical tomes, both compilations are covered in intricate symbols, and each theorem is illustrated with full-color drawings and photos that will help lead you to the solution.
  • The theorems also include hints (written in a simple code so that you don't accidentally peek), with solutions in the back.
  • "M" estimates that a clever teen or adult might need weeks to complete the first anthology and months to conquer the second.
  • 213 pages each.
  • Made in Michigan.

I enjoy these puzzles

I bought this on a whim, and I really enjoyed this puzzle book. I pull this out in the evenings when I want an activity that's not on my phone or computer and usually work on them with my spouse. i also bring the book with me to gatherings with friends and pull it out to work on together. It's also great for traveling and gives me something to do at the airport. I am certainly not the strongest puzzler, so I'm glad it comes with hints.


Wonderful way to spend an afternoon

I wasn't exactly sure what I was getting into with this puzzle book, but I was pleasantly surprised. The puzzles are all different enough and require some serious thinking depending on the difficulty level. The back story is intriguing, and I am looking forward to the next volume.

Shared enjoyment - two generations

What fun to be able to share a puzzle challenge I have enjoyed with others! After showing my copy of the Master Theorem Book of Puzzles to a family member during a recent visit, I ordered a new copy for him to dive into. He was so pleased when it arrived in the email. #sweepstakes


Seems to be a good challeng

I purchased as a gift for a routine "puzzler" and so far a few have stumped him, which is great! Too easy is no fun for these folks.


A fun thinker

Quirky background! Puzzle solving with a purpose. Fun and engaging activity to keep the brain active.


Christmas gift for my engineer son!!

Have an engineer for a son and loves puzzles! Part of his morning routine is to complete the NY Times crossword daily--even on Sundays! Got this gift for him and he took a trip to Mexico and said he would begin there. Well, he loved it! Told me it was the only puzzle book he took and he gave it a big thumbs up!! Uncommon Goods hasn't disappointed me yet. Thank you!!!


Great Gift

My fiancé is really into puzzles, coding, and fun problem solving. This is the absolute perfect gift for his birthday, super cool.

Please answer Question 1- What is the DIFFERENCE between 'original' versus 'elite' editions? What's given is similarities… both have 40, elite has an unknown # > 40. Do any 'theorems' overlap or repeat between editions?
