  • You might remember the Titan Puzzle. For me definitely the hardest puzzle I solved during 2019. The Hipflask Puzzle that was released recently is the second design on Felix Ure from the UK. I am excited about trying it but also a bit afraid of how long it will take me. 3.., 2.., 1.., FIGHT!

    Well done Mr Puzzle, great solve and great video! The pin was originally steel, but one hard twist with the steel pin made the steel dent the edges of the brass maze, expanding the brass enough to cause the central piece to stick. The plastic is PEEK, so it's very strong, I can't break it if I try - the warning on the card was just an added precaution 😁

      Minor clickbait, but for the average person who has limited experience with puzzles, these would be nearly impossible to solve.

  • @rsaunders57
    @rsaunders57 Před 4 lety +1

    I suspect the lightweight plastic pin prevents a banging attack, where you pull on the lid while firmly banging the body of the puzzle on the table. If it were heavier steel, it would be quicker to bump the puzzle open than going through all the twisting. Having seen you bang puzzles more than once, this seems like a reasonable precaution.

    Does the pin being plastic increase the difficulty? It seems like it might decrease tactile feedback; causing you to relay on trial an error more, and less by feel.

      Definitely the Titan. The hip flaks is a great puzzle, but too expensive for an ‘easy’ solution where the only really difficult part is figuring out what to do with the two pins. For this price I would have expected more steps to remove the lid. I also love how simply the Titan looks, it is just a sphere and that’s it.

      Something can be impossible to intuit, even if a solution exists and can be shown.
