  • Today we're going through the simplest solution for the Hanayama Enigma puzzle.
    To get more puzzles like the Enigma puzzle, check out the Puzzle Master website; www.puzzlemaster.ca/?a=816591
    The Hanayama Enigma puzzle is a level 6 out of a possible 6 on Hanayama's own difficulty scale, which essentially means that they don't come much tougher than this.
    The solution is a sequence of seven moves that are very specific because they involve certain pieces passing over and through each other in order to disassemble each piece.
    Hopefully, I've done a good enough job and this Enigma solution is easy to follow along with.
    If you have any questions, please let me know in the comments and I'll do my best to help.
    Enjoy the Hanayama Enigma solution!

    The step with "force" is not needed. There is a way to manipulate the tail piece around to get it in the proper position, which i believe to be the intended solution since i have yet to come across any hanayama puzzle that requires any amount of force, including the helix👍

    You won't believe it, I bought this puzzle to entertain myself on a 4 hour flight but ended up being curious and opened it days before my flight. Few minutes into fiddling with it I literally was just wildly flinging it around and at some stage after the first piece pulled apart successfully just by accident 😆 had to watch your video on how to put the pieces back but I managed to accidentally "solve" this grandmaster level puzzle with sheer luck!!!!

    Have you seen the new Hanayama puzzle coming out this month? The Hanayama Slider.. only a level 3, wish it was atleast a 4+ but who knows could still be a challenge! I can’t wait to try it.

    • @RossDM
      @RossDM  Před 5 lety +2

      Yeah, I saw it last week. I can't find a date for release though, the only thing I've seen is the 'end of June' but it usually takes a few weeks to get to the UK stores.
      To be honest, I'm looking forward to an easier, new puzzle. The last 2 (Hourglass & UFO) have been 2 of the hardest I've done!

    • @mcstickysticks6197
      @mcstickysticks6197 Před 5 lety

      Yea I couldn’t find an exact release date either... I’m not sure if it will be available in the states then or not. I highly doubt it. I know the ufo was out in Japan way before it was available in the usa.

  • @Xitium
    @Xitium Před 4 lety +7

    The step where you need a bit of force doesn't really require force if you turn it and do it just a bit differently. I feel that not forcing it is better. Great video tho!

    • @salarmlock4708
      @salarmlock4708 Před 4 lety

      Sorry but I don’t agree, u may have one that is slightly bent that works without the small force. Of course without force is better. If there was any way to turn it so no force is necessary, i wldve found it. Correct me if im wrong Ross, were u able to find a way without that force?

    • @Ighnaz17
      @Ighnaz17 Před 4 lety +2

      Sal Armlock sorry to say, but you are actually wrong. There is a move to turn the piece around without using force, you just brute forced the puzzle to solve it :o

    • @dbutcher84
      @dbutcher84 Před 3 lety +2

      Totally correct. There is a way to manipulate the tail piece around so zero force is needed, which i believe is the intended solution. Just like the helix, all those arguing that any amount of force is needed just haven't found the correct move yet. I have yet to see any hanayama that needs one bit of force.

    • @zlac
      @zlac Před 2 lety +1

      I went to search for this comment, the move with force is cheating because there is an elaborate way to manipulate the pieces and then there is absolutely 0 force involved!

    After I got it done, i watched your solution and wow I agree with everyone , you arte THEE best at showing how to do it , the ONLY way too I think . There is a possible second way at a single point but I cannot recall it . Great video ! I think you are probably encouraging people to buy a lot of puzzles, ..............hanayama should be sending you a paycheck !

  • @TriangelProduction
    @TriangelProduction Před rokem

    I'm new to the Huzzle puzzle world and your video solutions are always a very big help that I can usually follow well. With this Enigma puzzle, however, I found that in the end, solving the last two elements works without that slight pressing motion over the long puzzle part. I also think that this never has to be the case if the puzzle is to be solved correctly. In this case, it is in any case possible to solve every piece from each other without any kind of slight force.

    • @RossDM
      @RossDM  Před rokem +1

      Your right. At the time, I didn't know the proper solution, hence the slight force required for the last move. The other way is the correct one though.

    @robertmiller341 Před 3 lety +1

    Very interesting I've solved this puzzle a number of times. This is first time watching a solution for it and your solution is slightly different than mine. When both the long tail and circle are on the loop the short tail my method of switching I do the opposite. It would be difficult to explain without showing you. Your method does look easier though.

    OMG I saw a guy on the bus doing this and i asked him what it was. He gave it to me (generous). I found this video and now i see he put it together wrong. But if it went together it must come apart somehow! He has the short tail piece in the wrong hole of the circle piece. Im screwed!
    What do I do if it's not assembled correctly?

  • @lawfon
    @lawfon Před 3 lety

    Manage to solve this puzzle after numerous tries and drop by here as i m keen to see the solution from others. This is indeed one of the best solution i seen however I noticed the last step at 4min requires some force to push the long tail over short tail and it may not be the best approach. Instead position the long tail facing up inside the short tail hole against the small little flat curve and twist it to the left. That will do the job too with lesser force.

    • @RossDM

    Hi Ross, following the comment I made in the video where you solve the Enigma puzzle, I will tell you that your statement you are making at 4:05' that you need a little bit of force to move one tailend under the other can be avoided by making a beautiful move which I will try to record
