Description

I’m offering up this cool puzzle to free up funds for more puzzles.

Here’s a description from Jim Storer’s website of ‘Neo Black & White’:

“The two blank 1x1 pieces are glued to the tray and cannot move. The center blank 2 by 1 keeper piece is removed to make the starting position shown on the right above. The goal is to slide the pieces so that BLACK is on top and WHITE is on the bottom.

Hordern's book shows 198 rectilinear (237 straight-line) moves and the Puzzler's Tribute book, in a chapter coauthored by Minoru Abe, shows 190 rectilinear (231 straight-line) moves.”

Comes in original packaging.

Shipping cost to be determined at close of auction.

Tamas has started to use Ai to influence his designs with this sliding tile puzzle being one of them.As with any sliding tile puzzle once you begin moving pieces around your original goal quickly vanishes and confusion sets in.Here’s a brief description from Tamas:“AI inspired puzzle with sliding elements. The goal is to arrange elements to make a path from top left to bottom right.”Shipping cost to be determined at close of auction.

Safe Keys by Tamas Vanyo

This is a very cool puzzle by Tamas and your goal is to manipulate the five keys and two sliders in an effort to completely disassemble it. The metal ‘fob’ piece assures that you keep to a rather high move count of 59.2, in fact Tamas pointed this out in a note “the wire ring is foldable so you can rearrange the keys so the puzzle has more solutions.”Shipping cost to be determined at close of auction.

Golden Pot - Yavuz Demirhan by Pelikan

I’m reluctantly offering up this beautiful puzzle design by Yavuz that was exceptionally crafted by Pelikan.Kevin Sadler wrote about it:“When Yavuz designs something, I always pay attention. He is an amazing designer as well as a superb craftsman. The belief that there is a pot of gold at the end of a rainbow is a wonderful piece of old Irish folklore and it is quite surprising that a Turkish man living in Germany can get a pair of Czech craftsmen to make it but even without a hint of Irelan...
