First and foremost, I just want to introduce myself to everyone since I am new here and apparently a little late to the revomaze party. Better late than never, I guess. Name is Mike and I am from Mount Prospect, Illinois. I am a science teacher (biology and physics) and have recently developed an obsession with puzzles. Started with the Hanayama cast puzzles and realized that those are a little easy, even on the hardest scale. Decided to test my hand and order the bronze to start, which is on the way. Seemed like the best one to get the most bang for the buck...
Right now, I am wondering if anyone is selling any of their mazes. I really don't care too much about the competition aspect, but would love to have a more complete collection. It seems like a lot of them are "sold out" or "discontinued" and are VERY difficult to find.
Once again, super excited to be a part of the community!

Re: New here
Welcome to the wonderful world of Revomaze.
I also tried the Bronze as my first maze but couldn't do it, I found the learning curve too steep and got a Blue aswell.
I wish you the best of luck with it, and if you need any tips, the guys and girls that have solved it probably won't give you any
But they will tell you to map and be there for encouragement

Re: New here
Welcome to the madness Mike!
There are some current mazes out there you can pick up, and others come up from time to time. They should be doing another run of Indigo at some point. The rarer mazes (Purple, Handmade, Black) will require deep pockets.
Cheers!

I agree! There used to be a bar in my hometown with the old cop car on display. Bar has since closed. It was called the "Blues Bar."Dorothea wrote:......maybe BluesBrother would have been a nice nickname.......mcparty wrote: I am from Mount Prospect, Illinois

Re: New here
Would you recommend just the blue or the aqua as well? Is the aqua even necessary outside from a collector standpoint of things?Lilmike14 wrote:Welcome to the wonderful world of Revomaze.

Re: New here
Hi Mike,
I'm pretty new as well; only been in the revo game for about 6 months now.
I started with the aqua and it was a fun maze to learn on. It was challenging enough but really introduced me to how these things work. I've since also solved blue and green. I am just now getting to my bronze and am already stuck on the first part. I can tell this thing is going to be a beast to tackle.
I think it's really helpful to have seen the core of a revomaze. It gives you a much better understanding of how they work, even though each one has it's own unique tricks. I was happy to start with a static maze, as that was tricky enough. Bronze will be my first dynamic maze to work on and I have a feeling it's going to take me a pretty long time.
Good luck and welcome to the madness!

I'm afraid I couldn't tell you, the only maze I have solved thus far is the Blue(I don't own an Aqua), I think it was a great introduction maze, and should hopefully give you hours of fun.
But best get some responses from people with both to find their opinions on which is best.

Re: New here
Hmm, that's a good point. I solved it as a beginner maze and I had a lot of fun doing it. And I also had a lot of fun solving blue. I could see where aqua might not be as fun if you've already solved way harder mazes, although surely it would still be some fun, even if it were a bit too easy.Lilmike14 wrote: I'm afraid I couldn't tell you, the only maze I have solved thus far is the Blue(I don't own an Aqua), I think it was a great introduction maze, and should hopefully give you hours of fun.

For reference, it was my first maze and took me ~10 hours to solve. From what I've seen from the seasoned Revomazers, it took most of them 2-3 hours to solve.
There is also the price point to consider; it's nearly half the price of the other revos... Plus, it's a nice one to hand off to friends and possibly get more people into Revomaze, which could equate to more profit and theoretically more productions.

Thanks for the reply. I am really considering getting the blue to have as a beginner, but I don't necessarily want to spend the money right away. I want to get a feel for how difficult these are, so I can impress myself later.
Maybe at the end of the month, when I get paid!
Looking forward to beginning my journey!
