Jesse Born & Rob Yarger (Stickman) - Sundial Puzzle Box (2022)
i swear, this puzzle
is an Indiana Jones movie. one particular step in the solution
literally, viscerally, made me jump. and for a wooden puzzlebox,
that's impressive. if you know this puzzle, you know the thing i'm

and i wholeheartedly agree
this one's pretty
epic as far as sequential discovery puzzles go. you don't just have
to find the tools, you have to solve sub-puzzles. solving this took

bog-standard blue-back Bicycle deck inside for something cooler (see

Upon inspection Topless Box immediately presents a conundrum: with two lids and no top or bottom, how can it be opened? Where do you even begin?The mechanism may be deduced without the use of external tools. No bumping, banging, shaking, spinning, gravity moves, or excessive force is necessary or allowed. Once opened, the elegant mechanism is visible to the solver, and you'll...
