Overview
O'Gear Pocket Puzzle
This unique pocket puzzle is a marvel of creative engineering. The bronze metal star has a strange box stuck on one of its five points. But some careful twisting and turning will reveal a startling mechanical movement—the box can move around the star, or perhaps the star can move through the box! This surprising gear-like motion of the two pieces was the inspiration for the name of the puzzle. An attractive design with a very challenging solution. Even once you get the pieces apart, you may have trouble remembering the exact sequence for next time.
Designed by one of our favorite puzzle creators, Oskar van Deventer of the Netherlands. Manufactured by Hanayama of Japan.
