Like the “Cast Loop Puzzle”, the “Cast Diamond Puzzle” was a beloved favorite of guests during the 18-month run of Joshua Jay’s off-broadway show Six Impossible Things. After the show, members of the audience were invited to test their skills on a variety of puzzles while they waited to meet Josh. Night after night, this “Huzzle Cast Diamond Puzzle” was a unanimous favorite puzzle for kids and adults.
Unlike our challenging “Cast Cyclone Puzzle”, the “Cast Diamond Puzzle” is perfect for beginners. Don’t let it’s simple objective fool you though. It’s distinct design is crafted to make even seasoned puzzlers think in creative ways.
The “Cast Diamond Puzzle” consists of just two pieces and taking them apart is a breeze. Putting them back together though is where you’ll have to put your brain to work.
As this elegant puzzle fits in your pocket, you’ll want to carry it with you everywhere.
I bought one of these puzzles for myself and one each for my two adult sons. It was a hit as a Christmas present and immediately took their minds off all the other neat, more expensive stuff they had received. my 9 year old grandson solved it in 5 minutes while fiddling with it, but then realized he didn't know how he had done it and spent the next hour trying to duplicate his success. I carry it in my pocket and hand the 2 pieces unlinked to any friend i know has a mechanical bent. All of them are instantly focused on trying to solve it. My favorite experience was watching a physics teacher play with it for an hour with no success and refusing to give it up for others to try. I like the feel of this small, solid heavy weight in my pocket. It is beautifully made. The package arrived with the 2 pieces unlinked and I fiddled around for about 20 minutes before the penny dropped and I saw what needed to be done. If you hand it out to others, I strongly suggest you do NOT hand it out in linked form - that makes the solution pretty obvious. Definitely worth the price.
