Description

205 Minutes is an amazing n-ary puzzle that has it's name due to the fact that it takes over 12,000 moves to completely disassemble and if you make a move per second, it will take 205 minutes from start to finish before you are done. What a monster of a puzzle!

Unfortunately this is not the wooden version made by CD, but a print that Aleksandr Leontev made for himself. The print is very high quality, it has a nice weight to it implying that a very high infill percentage was used in this print, weighs 6.5 ounces and measures 2.5" for all 3 sides.

It works well as a puzzle that you can carry around with you everywhere since it fits nicely into the packets of a jacket and is clearly durable enough to handle rough usage. Compared to the fact that one wouldn't want to casually carry around the CD version out of a fear of damaging it, this is a clear benefit of owning the printed version of the puzzle.

It also comes with a piece shown in the picture where it can be switched out with another piece for a shorter solve sequence that is "only" about 10,000 moves long. I also have a BT file that I can provide which shows the solve sequence for both problems. But there is the obvious issue of moving the animation slider to watch 1 or 2 moves in a sequence that is 10 to 12 thousand moves long. So I don't consider the BT file to be too helpful.

Sadly, this print does not have the ingenious "quick-reset" mechanism that the wooden CD version has. So if you wish to reset the puzzle after solving it, you will need to reverse the entire solve sequence all over again. 410 minutes of fun guaranteed!

I accept Paypal. I prefer Friends & Family due to the IRS tax rules. But if you rather pay with Goods & Services, I will accommodate that preference.

I accept Wise for international buyers.

I am willing to consider other payment methods.

Shipping is USPS or UPS

Buyer chooses the shipping service and shipping speed, First Class or Priority (assuming the package is under the weight limit for First Class).
Insurance is optional, but buyer has to cover it if it is desired.
I ask the winner to hold off on paying until after I calculate and message final shipping costs to be added to the final bid.

Payments & Returns

Payment Methods: PayPal, Wise

Hol(e)y by Josiah

Hol(e)y is the third and final puzzle in a trilogy of lego puzzles from Josiah, and it ends things with a major challenge!The goal is to simply open the drawer to find your prize. But if anyone was paying attention, just like with the prior puzzles in the trilogy, you also have to figure out the reset as well which is not a simple reversal of prior steps! It's yet another major step up from Prison Block with 30+ steps and Josiah was gloating about including some diabolical sneaky mechanisms to t...

Vertigo by Dee Dixon

Vertigo definitely lives up to its name considering how easy it is to go around and around in circles with this puzzle!It's a good thing that it's so pretty and nice to look at considering how long I spent just staring at it like an idiot lost on the next step to do! I liked it more than most of Dee's other works. It has some very nice steps that I was impressed by and liked to repeat just for the tactile pleasure of executing these steps.Grab this bad boy to enjoy as the first puzzle of 2026!I ...

Sand Castle Puzzle Box by Josiah

Sand Castle is the first in a trilogy of lego puzzles from Josiah, and it starts things off with a bang!The goal is to find and raise the hidden flag from within the castle, but that's not the end point of this puzzle. You have to figure out the reset as well which is not a simple reversal of prior steps! It's not considered too hard, but I still had a lovely time with the involved 5 steps of the puzzle and it makes for an excellent introductory lego puzzle to hand to family and frie...

Knot-a-2x2 by Rex Perez

Knot-a-2x2 made for a wild flashback to my younger years playing with a Rubik's Cube. I'll be honest here, I struggled just as badly here as I did back then with the Rubik's Cube hahaha.I had fun with Rex's prior designs when he was mostly selling coin releases and burrs, so when I heard that he was designing an SD for seemingly the first time, I knew I had to get it. And hearing that it's based on the design of a Rubik's Cube, that just sealed the deal.The goal is to scramble up the cube so you...
