G&G Hanayama Cast Metal Puzzle

★★★★☆ 4.4 out of 5 · 88 owner ratings
$1795 Pick it up — open the G&G listing

We cut G&G into a handful of parts. Solid through, with a weight in the hand that tells you force is not going to be the answer. The halves part in one order only, and the order is the whole trick.

  • Rated level 3 on our six-step ladder, so you know the sit before you start.
  • Small enough for a coat pocket, heavy enough to feel solved.
  • No printed hints on the body; the shape is the only instruction.
  • A sealed solution sheet travels in the box for the day you give in.

It makes a great beginner or intermediate puzzle

I'm new to disentanglement puzzles and this was my first one. It makes a great beginner or intermediate puzzle. I would fool with it a few minutes, set it down, and later try again to solve it. This went on for a couple of days. I finally reached the point where I thought my G&G puzzle must be defective and couldn't be solved. But I kept playing with it and like a miracle the two pieces separated in my hand. I was overjoyed!! Didn't quite know how I did it, but it gave me confidence to rejoin the two pieces and try again. Now I can take it apart quickly and easily in just a few seconds.

GGee, great puzzle for level 3

Great sturdy puzzle (as expected from Hanayama) I would rate this an easier 3 or maybe I'm just really good with this type of puzzle normally I go with level 5 and 6 since I want to spend some time with it to figure it out. - this one took me under 3 minutes to take apart AND put back together. but that's was ok, it is for people at work that can't get the level 5/6's that I bring in.

I have about 16 Hanayama Puzzles and there are a handful of them I enjoy solving over and over again; this is one of them.

I have about 16 Hanayama Puzzles and there are a handful of them I enjoy solving over and over again; this is one of them. Don't feel ashamed to watch a youtube of how to solve the puzzle, it still takes you about 45 minutes to solve it, and resolve it, but that makes it fun! Better to fidget with this than chew on junk food while watching TV.
