Description

Yasuaki Kikuchi ‘s puzzle style combines playful themes, puzzle cleverness, high craftsmanship, and conceptual originality.  This is well-exemplified by Zipp Chack, Kikuchi’s 2017 Christmas puzzle.  Its form is a zipper.  How do you open a zipper?  While the answer informs the solution to this puzzle, Kikuchi doesn’t make it the obvious “just pull down the zipper”.  Can you figure out how to “unzip” the box to open it?  All original packing material is included.

Hydrant (2019) - Stephan Baumegger
In 2018 famed Austrian puzzle designer and craftsman Stephan Baumegger created a gorgeous sequential discovery puzzle in the form of a fire hydrant.  The exotic wood exterior hides a devious puzzle comprised of 44 different parts.  The stated goal is to find the fire hose inside.  The puzzle has some very well-disguised, clever moves, and was an award recipient at the 2018 International Puzzle Party. You can learn more about the puzzle at:https://www.puzzlemad.co.uk/2019/02/i-bought-box-by-a...
