Objective is to completely separate all 3 pieces and then rejoin. When assembled the puzzle has a gorgeous swirl shape (similar to a mobius band) . The designer, Akio Yamamoto, hints that solving the puzzle is to think of a "crest". This brain teaser is a great challenge for anyone who enjoys mechanical style take-apart challenges. Recommended for ages 12 to 105 years. Some bright 8 to 11 years olds may also find this a fascinating challenge. Requires clever movements. NO force is ever required.

Cast Spiral - Game Rank 5.
Spiral Hanayama Metal Brain teaser consists of five very similar looking, jigsaw-shaped, solid metal pieces. The pieces join together similar to those of a jigsaw puzzle. Alas, but not quite so simply. Small, compact, hand-size, tricky puzzle. The objective is to separate the five pieces and then rejoin back together in the shape of a disc. NO FORCE ever needed. Clever puzzle and moderately tricky. Hanayama rates this as a level 5 on a scale of 1 to 6 (where 6 is the most difficult.) Your experience may differ substantially. Ratings are subjective. The dice face on the packaging indicates the level of challenge. Most puzzlers do find the SPIRAL to be a very satisfying challenge. Great for fidgety hands. Solid cast metal pieces. This is one of the stronger Hanayama puzzles. Great for ages 14 to 105 years.Reminder: only clever movements. NO FORCE. There are 60 plus different cast metal brain teasers in the Hanayama series. Hanayama is the Japanese manufacturer of these puzzles.
