I think so, it doesnt move smoothly at all, like if the pin is broken or something, i dont know, but it doesnt feel like the revomaze did before it got broken :(

I'd be surprised if the pin is broken. The usual problem on obsessions is that a wall has been broken through and the chunk gets pushed into the reset line.

You'll have to speak to Chris or Joseph about any sort of repair or replacement. It *is* good quality plastic, its pretty difficult to break. I know that I ride the walls in these puzzles ridiculously hard compared to most people (I know I shouldn't), and I've never managed to push a wall through.

I saw a kid go mental on three(!) obsessions at the Gadget show... he managed to break them all... but he was resetting them by smacking them full force onto the ground... brings back some funny memoires of Nigel chasing him off the stand :lol: :lol:

Sounds funny. I am still so glad that chris went to the gadget show. I saw the revo on tv, and it was love at first sight.

It is a long shot, but put it in the freezer for a bit. I really doubt it will work, but no harm done.

an hour should be enough but if it doesnt work then try it overnight (but really the freezer trick is just to cool the thing down to unseize things that may have jammed but if a wall has broken and got stuck in the maze it wont do anything)
