Remember that analog puzzle alarm clock that we wrote about last year? Here is a new digital approach with the same kind of concept.

This “eye opener” of a gadget is an alarm clock come 3-piece jigsaw puzzle in one. When it’s time to leave your incredibly cosy bed each morning, not only will your ears be treated to a fantastic ringing melody, a 3-piece jigsaw puzzle randomly shoots out.

So what you ask? Well, in order to turn off a ringing alarm, you must solve the jigsaw puzzle, assembling it back on to the clock.

The Puzzle Alarm Clock ($38.35) measures 18 x 11 x 4 cm, requires 3 x AA batteries, and the time can be set to display in either 12 or 24 hour format.

So, we had the puzzle Play system. How about an alarm clock to go with that? The Puzzle Alarm Clock ($67) is guaranteed to wake you up…and to get on your nerves.

It wakes you up to the sound of four puzzle pieces falling to the floor, after having been fired up in the air. You then have to collect the pieces and put them back in the alarm clock in the correct order – it won’t turn off until then. No need to hit snooze after that.
