ROKR actually never stops to impress me with its design. Even trivial things, such as the globe, that was already made in hundreds of different iterations by a multitude of other companies — ROKR happens to do it in its own unique and interesting way.

About The Globe Puzzle
The Globe itself is quite big and will probably take quite some time to complete. Around 6 to 8 hours, to be precise. So you would probably have to do it in a few sittings.
The quality and the style of the puzzle are great, but there are some usual issues of a 3D wooden puzzles, like you have to be super careful with all the parts in order not to break them even though sometimes it is absolutely necessary to apply a lot of force.
Luckily there are not toothpicks in this assembly — something that I despise with all my heart when assembling 3D wooden puzzles.
The Globe has this stylish blue color on some parts that represent the sky and the ocean — something that is rarely seen across wooden puzzles and that definitely brings a fresh and cool contrast look to the assembled piece.
Main Features
There are many features within The Globe so prepare to be surprised.
First of all, well, it is a real Globe. It can be rotated with ease and works like a charm. Countries are not depicted, but the globe bears markings of all capitals and the continents. Nice touch without making it overabundant with details.
Secondly, there is a depiction of eight world wonders on the base of the globe — each having its own picture and a place.
The funniest thing is that every picture hides behind a secret locker that can be used to store things. But you cannot open it easily. In order to open the locker, you have to align the zodiac dial by turning the hand crook with the base zodiac sign under the globe. when both signs are aligned — the locker will open.
Very cool and nice addition to a great looking globe that could have been a separate puzzle on its own.
Basically, with this model, we have a 2-in-1 puzzle that can be both beautiful and practical.







Conclusion
To be honest, I just like ROKR 3D Puzzles because they never seize to impress me with a variety of features. The quality is optimal and usually much better than other similar puzzles from the competitors.
Nice thing to have on your desk or shelf. Great and fun assembly, innovative, thoughtful, and interesting features.

I am on step s 12-13 and I know the model calls for both blue color background and regular wood. The steps on 12 and 13 only say e and number but no f and number. Can anyone help me figure out what f goes with the e. I can see that some f’s do not have an e so those I get but the other are not very clear.
