V2 status

[Monty22001]

Any update on the V2's? I'm not in a big rush but I'm wondering if there's been any progress on them. Last that's been out there is the V2 mazes are still being worked on and the sleeves are ready. I'm looking forward to the bronze and beyond, thanks. I might even rebuy a Blue since my finish is so worn off on that sucker

Followup, there's a new Facebook posting by revomaze that there are new ones on the way soon..

[mattangel]

That is in response to an e-mail update regarding the Handmades, Oranges, Golds and CE Sets. News on any of the other puzzles has yet to become available

Best,
Matt

I just hope I can get a Green metal at puzzlemaster, just need to wait a month before I can really afford it. I have a green obsession but they just aren't the same to me.

Otherwise the main series now.. Blue, Green obs, Bronze, and Silver.

I noticed on the facebook posting that there were red cases on the table. I dunno if that means anything though.

Those are most likely orange sleeves boxed on their side. I think what's more interesting is the number of filled compartments in the organizer sitting on the table. I hope this means another dynamic puzzle!

[Monty22001]

Yes, they do look orange. I'd really like some easier blue-level ones though Maybe a Revomaze Jr that can help introduce people to them easier.

I rather agree with you here Monty. I know a ton of people who are really interested in RevoMaze, but just cant grasp the concept. I've shown them a BlueX shaft, a Blue map, and handed them a BlueO and they still cant grap the concept enough to get past step 8. If we could get a clear body with some basic moves, i think more folks could join the RevoFamily.

For me the single best part of Revomazing was those first hours with Blue, knowing nothing about it and every turn was a discovery. I still remember the first couple of minutes, and then the discovery that it didn't just spin, I could get it to go down into a path which made the shaft come out a little bit. Then it went click ....

If noobs need something simpler, fair enough, but I think a clear sleeve (or seeing a shaft) for a first timer would really ruin the experience.

[TheJuggler]

So why not create a shaft with a window ... not a window above the pin, but something offset. perhaps even that has a blind which would prevent you seeing all of the maze, but give you glimpses. It may even make for more of a challenge, as there's nothing to say that what you can see is relevant, or even which direction you've move through a section if you were to move through it at all ...

I've got to go with Stigy on this one. He described very well how I felt.
My first was the Obs and the excitement of pushing out that little scroll with a matchstick was out of this world. Then came opening my first Extreme... Brilliant!!
