Currently in the train on my way home from a very good puzzling weekend including the Dutch Cube Day. My suitcase is much heavier than it was yesterday! I bagged several puzzles from Vladimir, from Wil, and others. There also were interesting talks about N-ary puzzles, puzzles in education, and puzz...

If they destroy perplexus they can destroy other puzzles too, but anyway my kids like these cheap ones: Cubigami7 Soma cube ( in a box ) Tangram HappyCube (!) And to cure yourself from disliking jigsaws, buy 'four-color map' from Artifact puzzles. Call it a 2D packing puzzle if you want. A 68-piece ...

Yes I had my hands on the prototype, and yes it is awesome.

Have you solved the Lotus?
Have you solved the First box?
The Angel box is more than those two together (in size, weight, complexity, awesomeness, number of steps, you name it!-).

Another good reason to attend MPP!

Wauw, that is a very impressive collection Prodigy, and a great way to display with decent lighting!
I see metal is you thing, right? No wood, no twisties.
Did I mention your collection is impressive? It is!

Re: SonicWarp puzzles

How can the Kuku puzzle be broken, I cannot see anything that can go wrong with that puzzle? Lol! You are welcome to try one of the 'extra hard' Kuku's that 500 club members received, and then draw your own conclusions. Imagine a Revo with a 1mm wider core but the same sleeve... of course that woul...

If you go to WHSmith, they should have a copy of Wired magazine.
I am (we are) in Warfield, Bracknell until the weekend, the weekend will be spent near Birmingham;-)
I'll keep an eye out for WHSmith, thanks for the pointer.
