Description

Stuffing Burr is a bit of a quirky puzzle that's having fun playing with the boundaries of what it means to be a burr puzzle.

It's not the first time where I played with a burr puzzle with the goal of assembling it instead of taking it apart. But oddly enough, we don't need to deal with the struggling of long sequence of moves to manipulate and move the burr sticks around until they assemble. The level and move counts here are obviously fairly low. But the catch is that the final goal shape isn't intuitively obvious. That's the main part of the puzzle and the only clue is that it's one of 2 assemblies to cover up all of the notches of each piece. With 4 pieces and 8 notches to be filling, finding the solution feels like going around in circles in a glass maze. Great fun for any burr fans who are finding the standard type of burrs to be a little too samey lately.

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...

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...

Mittan by Juno

Mittan is like a cat in that it won't be too friendly with anyone who carelessly approaches and pets it without respecting the cat. And even then, it may sometimes just not like you even if you are respectful and sacrifice a tuna fish in front of the puzzle crying and begging for it to reveal its secrets!And to be honest, I can understand why this cat can be particularly grumpy since the solve involves taking the cat's face apart! I won't say too much to avoid spoilers but man I did wonder if Ju...
