Description
I think this is a replica of Kasimir Landowski's vintage "Moeraki Game Nr. 3":
"a puzzle with two intersecting looped tracks, each containing a number of coloured beads. The tracks intersect at four places, so they share four of the beads. All the beads of a loop can move along the track in unison, so the colours can be mixed. In the solved position, the parts of the tracks between and including the intersections contain white transparent beads which form a 5 by 5 square. The four remaining sections of the tracks, the curved outer ends of the loops, each have eight beads of a single colour."
This is a tricky, non-trivial solve (not just a simple fidget toy, but a true puzzle). Stickers included to individually label each bead for an even more complex solve. Not as pretty as the classic, but that version is difficult to obtain.
Shipping: $6 USA, $16 elsewhere.
