Naked Secret Box "BLUE", designed by Akio YamamotoThis was a challenging puzzle box for me.  Even though you can see all of the pieces clearly, it took me a while to work out the moves.  It's essentially a "burr" type puzzle.  Yamamoto designed various other Naked Secret Boxes of different colors.  "BLUE" was a puzzle entry in the 2014 Design Competition and, while I think the other colors can still be purchased at retail, I was told that "BLUE" is fairly rare, having been made in small quan...

Kevin Sadler wrote about it:“I have to start the review with these simple words: Buy this puzzle! It is incredible! Dr Latussek has a very strange mind! I do not understand how he designs these things – Burrtools is no use for them, he must do this in his head. This is not normal, there is absolutely nothing in my head at all let alone complex geometric manipulations. Volker has created several packing puzzles over the last few years and I have only ever managed to solve a couple of the simp...

Black Bow-Tie Tie designed and crafted Aleksandr Leontev. This was made using an injection mold process and was done by Leontev. There is damage on the base on this copy. During shipping the area at the pins on the base broke. It is the base and has no effect on the actual solve once you start the puzzle and the pieces start moving. If you know how to 3d print you could print a thin "washer" shape to glue on the base or leave it as is.A little about myself and the puzzles. I am a solver / co...

This work was designed as a Christmas present for 2022.There are two small storage spaces in this box, and you must find the "英" branding. In this work, I challenged myself to see how far I could increase the difficulty of the puzzle with a traditional structure, without using complicated tricks. Since this trick can be applied to past works as well, the range of my work’s expression is likely to expand.

Again, another beautiful puzzle produced by Eric Fuller and the Cubicdissection team. The puzzle is in near perfect condition. The puzzle is tricky to assemble, but once you figure it out, it slides together like butter. Here is what Cubicdissection had to say about it:“We were surprised when JinHoo contacted us with his latest design, Taco Cube. JinHoo is a very successful puzzle designer with multiple creations manufactured by the esteemed Hanayama company. He honored us by choosing Cubicd...

(Land Tetrapods)However, it was unclear whether they could walk properly.Perhaps they moved forward as if they were dragging their bodies with only their front legs?Perhaps the hind legs were just flopping around?However, the pelvis i...
