Until I got my Revomaze, I thought Hanayama puzzles were the finest on the market. Expert craftsmanship and deceptively cunning in design. I have about 20 in my collection and it is hard to choose a favorite. L'Oeuf has a very high replay factor, as does the Medallion puzzle. Both similar in design but each worth owning. Laby is great fun. I tend to like the maze puzzles, apparently!

I really don't like Quartet. That is the only Cast puzzle I don't think I will ever be able to solve without the instructions or a YouTube video guiding me.

I like the quartet up until I needed to put it back together. My favourite is the marble and at the moment the least has to be vortex.

Well Cast Cylinder is very good. Took about 5 minutes to take apart, 9 hours later... still no joy in putting it back together :cry:

Really, I've heard similar from a few people now?
I got mine yesterday... it took far less time to get it back together after jumbling up the pieces than it did to get it apart.

Yeah, im finding it very hard. I just cant seem to figure out what to do. I know that 1 of the parts is different but finding out how they go in is a different story. Im guessing overlapping as they twist them is the key but no joys yet :?
