That helped and I was able to get it back together, but that was somewhat less satisfying because of all the help I needed. This one was tough!Įven looking at the directions I couldn't get past this one particularly tricky move and had to resort to YouTube. I worked a bit more knowing that I had at least started correctly, but it was still an overwhelming task. Eventually I gave up and took a peek at the solution to get me going in the right direction. I worked on putting it back together for several days to no avail, it was essentially a jumbled mess that I could not make much sense of. I admired this for a bit and then set myself to the task of putting it together. One cool thing about this puzzle is that you can form a secondary shape using the four pieces that is kind of cool, but it isn't particularly challenging. Once it finally came undone, I knew I was in trouble: I really had no idea how I had done it. There are multiple levels of 'apart' for this one, and it took a decent amount of effort at each. So I abandoned that approach and just started wiggling it around in various ways, and eventually it started to come apart. Unfortunately, I was paying such close attention that I wasn't able to get the damn thing apart! I think when I get very focused on the movements, it limits my creativity somewhat.
It has a good weight to it as well, as do many of the Hanayama puzzles.īased on the reviews I knew it was going to be a very challenging puzzle, so I tried to be very methodical when I was taking it apart: this type of puzzle can be a beast to put back together when you don't pay attention (as I found with Cast Vortex). The puzzle has a nice black finish to it and an interesting angular appearance. I went down to Eureka Puzzles to pick it up and headed back to my apartment. This puzzle was an entry in the 2007 Puzzle Design Competition at the International Puzzle Party. After solving those two level 6 Hanayamas ( kind of), my confidence was high so I decided to try the final level 6: Cast Quartet by Mineyuki Uyematsu.
