Description

Crafted by Pelikan. They had this to say about it:

“Osanori Yamamoto and Pelikan have made yet another sequential movement puzzle in which 4 pieces are held in a maze and can slide and move in very restricted ways – the aim is to remove those pieces by carefully navigating the maze and orienting the pieces in such a way that they can be slid out through the single hole that will allow it. The last one of this type was the Waffle which I really struggled with. The Octopus 33 is made with a Bubinga and Wenge frame with 4 identical yellow Garapa L-shaped pieces providing a lovely contrast in colours. This seems to be probably the most restricted of this type of puzzle that Osanori-San has created. It's quite obvious early on where the exit point is and obviously rotations will be required to get all the pieces out of the frame. However, the obvious moves that you want to do are apparently impossible. The 8 “tentacles” of the Octopus make the movements that you want to do really quite hard to achieve. It's a nice series of discoveries to find how to manoeuvre the pieces and the Aha! moment has a very unexpected aspect to it which actually made my jaw drop when I realised what Osanori-san had managed to design.”

Prickly Pack - A Sequential Discovery Packing Puzzle

This is a re-release of my puzzle Prickly Pack, which was a sequel to Cactus Cube. The goal is the same, but the challenge is much greater. Pack the pieces into the box and plant your cactus. This one, however is a full blown SD with a step count in the double digits! DISCLAIMER: The solve for the SD portion of this puzzle is almost identical to Penny Pager (my upcoming coin release) - I suggest you choose that one instead if you don’t like packing puzzles!Shipping to be calculated ...

Penny Pager - Coin Release SD Puzzle

This is a VERY compact, yet still complex SD coin release puzzle that challenges you to remove the penny from the puzzle. DISCLAIMER: The solve for this puzzle is nearly identical to my puzzle “prickly pack” but it doesn’t involve the packing portion of the puzzle. If you’ve solved prickly pack before, it’s best to pass on this one unless you just want it to share with others or for your collection.Shipping to be calculated per buyer after sale - Please await a final invoice before ma...
