SCRAP (realescapegame.com) is the Japanese company that first introduced real-life (as opposed to web game) escape rooms to the world.  A few years ago, they came out with Puzz Pack, a game consisting of a series of pencil-and-paper puzzles in their characteristic style.  The game came with 2 identical sets, one for play and a "replay" set.  This is the replay set (I already used up the original set).

Description from Pluredro (Juno's) website:This is a restricted sliding block puzzle and its difficulty is extreme. Juno believes that most human beings cannot solve the puzzle without the aid of a computer. As he vaguely remember, Juno himself needed around two weeks to find one of the solutions, and the solution that he found requires more steps than the minimum movements needed to reach the goal. Each sliding piece has grooves on two sides and one of the grooves goes halfway alon...

"The "TV Puzzle" is a long-discontinued Pelikan release that was the subject of particular obsession on the Mechanical Puzzle Discord. I somehow got roped into making it; I'm still not sure how. Those guys are persuasive.TV Puzzle is an interesting hybrid packing and take-apart puzzle. My interpretation stayed true to Jakub's original design with a couple of changes - we fully lacquered and changed grain direction for all pieces to make the solution more difficult. The result is trickier than I...

This was Eric's second release of this puzzle back in 2008.  A burr with a box in the middle. I've shamelessly copied and pasted Eric's description. The box mechanism is in perfect working order, the burr fractionally loose."I made a small number of copies of this puzzle a while back. Always liked the design, and wanted to make it again. This time around, however, I decided to put a box in the middle since I had so much room to work with. But hey! If I'm going to put a box in the middle, I may ...
