An incredible looking puzzle.
An incredible feeling puzzle.
And, in my opinion - a very tricky puzzle!
A lovely amount of heft, absolutely solidly built. I wouldn't try to, but I imagine you could drop it out a window and it would be unharmed! That's how well-crafted Jesse Born's team seems to have made this thing.
Once again, Jesse comes through with a puzzle that's near the top of puzzle-story experiences. I always have to stop and appreciate the wonderful experience of how it feels to have a high-quality narrative through-line alongside the mechanical puzzle aspect.
Dimensions:
~7.5 inches long
~4.25 inches wide
~3 inches deep thanks to the ship wheel and trio of pipes on the face of it

Original website listing: https://jesseborn.com/product/captain-s-quest
From that listing: "This Puzzle is a nautical theme sequential discovery puzzle made from Steel, Brass, Copper, Ipe Lumber, and PLA (internal only).
We estimate and are working towards one puzzle per year in this flagship-style adventure-theme puzzle. Josh and I originally designed the Sea Chest puzzle and Luke Marshall made the copper ornaments for them, so this is in effect a continuation of that theme and genre.
This design is a collaboration of Jesse Born, Luke Marshall, with special thanks to Joshua Gant. There will be 300 puzzles made which will be signed and dated in the first edition, and 100 of a second edition.
All Captain's Quest puzzles are currently sold out.
There will be a sequel to this puzzle."
