The link above is definitely your best bet. I'd guess that even Wil doesn't remember all of the sequential discovery puzzles he's ever made. :lol:

Of all the puzzles by Wil listed on the Puzzle Place site, I think only the First Box, Lotus and Angel Box are Sequential Discovery Puzzles...that being said however, most of the puzzles in the list are Sequential Movement puzzles.

Maybe also the Aluminum Cross??

It's my favorite so maybe I just want it to be a sequential discovery puzzle.

It's more of a 'take-apart' puzzle really. Although it has several steps I wouldn't say that it has multiple discoveries or tools to find along the way. That certainly doesn't make it any less awesome as a puzzle though, just a different type.

After a few half-hearted attempts to open the Angel Box I finally spent some time with it tonight. The Angel, she is free !!!

Once I really tried, I was able open the lock in a few minutes. I think I was just very lucky to open it that quickly.

I really liked the way this puzzle surprised me. With each step you learn more about what's inside. Even the last mechanical hurdle makes you think and work for the solution. Difficult and interesting, but logical and openable if you're persistant.

Now if only I could make the same headway with his first box...

Congrats!

I solved the Angel pretty quick and found the lotus to be more difficult. With the First Box I was just very lucky and opened it within minutes.... was sitting on the couch and hold it with one hand and,.. voila.

Still my favorite is the Cross than the Lotus, Angel, First Box.

Finally got some time to get the Angel Box open. After losing my tools and using the method Wil himself suggested to me to proceed, I have to say, I liked it. I think personally I liked it more than lotus. While it's definitely not as compact and portable as the Lotus, I think I like that it's less vague of a goal from the get-go. You know and can see your end goal the whole time. Most people think they're finished with the Lotus when they're only half done.
