This is a great little puzzle from Hanayama rated 2 out of 6. I have to agree with this rating, it took me around 20 minutes to solve. It has a very fluid motion and is really interesting (I was surprised by the use of the whole puzzle).
The finish on the puzzle is like the Cast Equa and very well made. This puzzle is larger than the Cast Key but this is neither a good or bad thing for me. It is a good looking puzzle which creates a lot of interest when left on a table.
This puzzle only narrowly misses out on a place in my top 10, due to its similarity with the Cast Key. They use very similar mechanisms to solve which is a little disappointing!
This does make a good addition due to it being so different from the rest of the collection (excluding the Cast Key obviously), and it has maze like feel to it.
