Description

Kyoko Hoshino has a distinctive style within the Karakuri Creation Group, with puzzle boxes that often possess a story-telling nature with movements that align beautifully with a puzzle’s theme.  A great example of this is Kinoko Box.  “Kinoko” is the Japanese word for “mushroom”, two of which can be found adorning this box and where the solution is fluidly connected to them.  All original packaging included.

Bus Stop (2018) - Osamu Kasho (Karakuri)
Bus Stop is a fantastic example of celebrated puzzle craftsman Osamu Kasho’s singular combination of playful Karakuri design coupled with delightful puzzling mechanic.  There’s a bus.  There’s a stop sign.  We all know what a vehicle does at a stop sign.  How does this play out here?  Figuring that out is the key to opening the box, and even with the solution being connected to the puzzle’s theme it can still take some time to figure out the key step.  And it’s beautiful, craft...
