Rare Bosstonean Cube - IPP26 Boston (2006) - Coordinate Motion Puzzle by Joe Becker & Bill Darrah

​Up for auction is the highly sought-after Bosstonean Cube, an official exchange puzzle from the 26th International Puzzle Party (IPP26) held in Boston in 2006.

​Designed by Bill Darrah and Joe Becker, this puzzle is a brilliant homage to Serhiy Grabarchuk’s "Cubical Borromean Rings." While its striking yellow, red, and black "Borromean" pattern is visually stunning, it serves as a clever distraction for the real challenge: Coordinate Motion.

​Unlike standard interlocking puzzles, the Bosstonean Cube requires multiple pieces to be moved simultaneously in a synchronized "dance" to disassemble and reassemble it. No force or flexing is required—only precision and logic.
