This is a wonderful, beautiful and fun puzzle by Ludignum [Craftsman Peter Freese]

"What feels like the way forward is sometimes only the path back to our beginning. - The Detour Box reflects this experience in form. What first appears direct and purposeful unfolds, turn by turn, into a course that seems to promise progress even as it leads us away--until at last, we find ourselves returned to familiar ground.

Not every misstep begins with a wrong turn."

This is his first outing as a puzzle-maker, and I'm really very excited for what might come next, as this initial offering has such a high level of polish and refinement. Movements feel perfect and snappy, the construction is entirely solid.

The Detour is a delightful descent into deception and doubt and desiring doublebacks, and that's all I can say. :}

I'm heartbroken that I have to part with this puzzle, I hope it goes to a good home.

Solved thrice, as I just had to try it again a few times. It remains pristine.

Original documentation, packaging, shipment box, solution sheet and certificate of authenticity all included. (This is copy #31)

The puzzle has been stored in a humidity controlled environment after opening. It should be kept in 40%-60% humidity. Pet-free and smoke-free home.
