The Magic Puzzle Company is an American jigsaw puzzle company founded in 2020.[1]

The company collaborates with magicians and artists to make jigsaw puzzles with narrative elements and Easter eggs.[1] Its puzzles include a mix of traditional and unusual piece shapes[2] and, once finished, can be rearranged to form new images, a feature the company calls Magic Shift.[3] Magic Puzzle Company has worked with artists including Ghostshrimp, Boya Sun, and Felicia Chiao.[4]

Magic Puzzle Company was founded in California[5] in 2020 by Cards Against Humanity co-founders Max Temkin and Ben Hantoot following a Kickstarter campaign that raised over US$3 million.[6] Temkin left both companies in 2020 following allegations of misconduct at Cards Against Humanity.[6]

The Kickstarter campaign enabled the company to create the initial set of three puzzles, which created the first set (Series 1). Further sets followed in later years.
