Juno - A Mazing Burr (2017)
⟬ Juno Fortnight ⟭——[ puzzles designed by Junichi Yananose
]——02. A Mazing Burr (2017)
from Juno's description:
A Mazing Burr is as funny and
weird as his previously designed puzzles. There are mazes on the
puzzle pieces and pins travel in those grooved mazes. There are many
dead ends and ironically, the dead end shape of the groove does not
always mean dead end of the puzzle. The puzzle requires multiple
coordinated motion for assembling and disassembli...

This

sound so complex and difficult because there are so many high level
