Quick answer
Use Octopolis bookmarks to mark your current puzzle page, track solved clues, and temporarily flag multiple sections without damaging your book or puzzle sheets.
Why Octopolis bookmarks work for puzzles
Unlike standard paper slips, these bookmarks are built to last with hand-drawn illustrations by Lev Kaplan. Their durable design means they won't tear or curl when you slide them between pages repeatedly—a common issue when flipping between a puzzle book and a reference sheet.
The set of five bookmarks gives you enough markers to track different puzzle stages: one for the current page, one for the clue list, one for the answer key (if you peek), and spares for pages you want to revisit. This avoids the frustration of losing your place or mixing up sections.
How to use Octopolis bookmarks for puzzles
- Mark your current puzzle page: Place one bookmark at the page you are actively solving. This is your primary marker—always return to it after checking clues or references. Common mistake: using a single bookmark for both the page and the clue list, leading to confusion when you flip back.
- Flag clue sheets or reference pages: Use a second bookmark to mark the page where clues, hints, or puzzle instructions are listed. This keeps your primary marker separate and avoids mixing up the puzzle and its solution. Checkpoint: if your puzzle book has a separate answer section, use a third bookmark there—don't rely on memory.
- Track solved and unsolved sections: Assign a bookmark to each section you plan to return to later. For example, one for partially solved puzzles and one for puzzles you skipped. The five-bookmark set gives you enough to cover multiple stages without overloading. Common mistake: leaving bookmarks in too many pages at once. Limit markers to three or four so you don't lose track of which is which.
- Keep bookmarks organized when not in use: Store the set together in your puzzle book's front cover or a dedicated pouch. This prevents individual bookmarks from slipping out or getting lost between other books. Checkpoint: after finishing a puzzle session, collect all bookmarks and place them back in the set. This saves time next session.
