Implications - The credit crunch changed the face of family entertainment; instead of going out to a movie or embarking on a day trip, many families stayed at home to play board games, watch television or engage in more classic forms of fun. Analog toys such as puzzles and Rubik's cubes made a comeback for their budget-friendliness and ability to inspire nostalgia for multiple generations. Designers upped the ante by releasing innovative puzzles that far surpass the creativity of previous iterations.
