Troubleshooting
Missing pieces
Double-check the box and surrounding area thoroughly. Ravensburger typically has excellent quality control, but if a piece is confirmed missing, contact their customer support for assistance. Proof of purchase may be required.
Pieces don't fit well
Ensure you are using pieces from the correct area of the puzzle. Gently try to fit pieces; forcing them can damage the cardboard. Check if pieces are warped or bent, which might indicate damage during manufacturing or storage.
