Straight Forward tricky puzzle IPP27 exchange

Designed by Brian Young for the IPP27 exchange.  It might look like a maze but it’s way trickier than it looks. Not so straight forward.

This puzzle has never been sold. I’ve lost the original card so I’ll print a new one and the solution to go with it.  But I’ve gone through all the solve steps of the puzzle and it works properly.

Original text describing the puzzle from our website way back then is below.  And general information about payment and shipping below that.

Original Text from Mr Puzzle website:

Edward Hordern IPP27 Puzzle Exchange – Gold Coast, Australia. August 2007. 200 made.
Presented by Patrick Major.  Made by Mr Puzzle Australia. Designed by Brian Young.

The simplest maze in the world, or is it? Simply get the ball bearing from START to FINISH.

At a previous IPP Patrick and Brian had been sitting in a bar discussing puzzles (as they usually are…) when Patrick thought of the challenge to make the simplest looking maze in the world; of course it might not be the easiest to do. Brian could not resist the challenge and this puzzle is the direct result of that discussion.

Puzzle made from Queensland Blackbean. Size: 147mm x 50mm x 20mm.
