Jerry's Description: The goal is to re-arrange the 5 pieces and change the #8 to a #0. Saying "abracadabra" would certainly help!
Although this year's design bears some resemblance to my entry at last year's IPP competition, the #69, the Magiq#8 is totally different in terms of the solve. My design was expertly crafted by Tom Lensch and consists of exotic woods comprising walnut, holly, shedua and yellowheart. Construction, fit and finish is excellent and I particularly liked the perimeter trim added by Tom to the top edge of the box.
It's not as straight forward a packing puzzle as one might expect and there is a trick to it. No spoilers so I shall not say anymore. What's the difficulty level? I can't say as I have not received any feedback so far, although puzzler Marc Pawliger did casually mention to me in the competition room that he found it quite devilish.
