 | The Enigma Metal Puzzle
The Enigma Metal Puzzle - This puzzle is a source of much frustration and many qualified puzzlers just don’t ‘get’ it. Rocket science it is not – but human brains don’t seem to react well to this tough little challenge. I’ve always wanted to test it on a chimpanze and see if humans really are just not cut out for this one.

 | The Menace Metal Puzzle
The Menace Metal Puzzle - We feel that the Menace can possibly be described as the greatest metal puzzle ever invented. It holds that very thing that humans hate most about non living objects – it is almost certainly cleverer than they are. If you have no patience, don’t buy it. If you have a very small brain, don’t buy it either. And if you fancy yourself as a bit of a problem solver, you may have met your match.
The genius of this puzzle is the fact that a toddler could reconnect the pieces when separated in seconds. But once connected they are seemingly impossible to separate again. Two identical metal bars twisted into a simple shape really do not come more menacing than this. And if you do separate the pieces, simply put the puzzle back together the opposite way around for more endless hours of mind bending fun!

 | The Quandary Metal Puzzle
The Quandary Metal Puzzle - The Quandary is a classic puzzle. It really is very simple in principle, requiring two movements to set the small piece free. Both movements are distinct from each other, and finding one does not really help you in finding the next. So although it should be simple, we have never seen anyone work this puzzle out quickly. It takes patience and a bright mind to understand this puzzle.
But it’s a level 1! we hear you say. That it may be, but we would not recommend you passing this test to your average Joe. Those who think that frantic wiggling of the pieces holds their best hopes for success are likely to be defeated quickly by this understated little troublemaker.

 | The Ringleader Metal Puzzle
The Ringleader Metal Puzzle - Let's not best around the bush - only those with the most sadistic of minds will enjoy this one! It could easily have been called "Death by Puzzle" and although it does not look complicated, it is fiendishly complex. It's the most difficult puzzle in the series - seven fearsome moves are required - embark on it at your peril!

 | The Sting Metal Puzzle
The Sting Metal Puzzle - The Sting is a strange little puzzle. Only one movement is required to separate the pieces. Some people discover the secret more quickly than others, but the real challenge is getting to grips with the intricacies of these two identical shapes. The puzzle has a trap door leading to a dead end and can be put back together in two different ways. If you put the pieces back together the opposite way around, a totally new solution is required to separate the pieces.
We often hear people whisper ‘Ahh – I get it…’ when it turns out they really don’t get it at all. Definitely a puzzle with a sting in its tail.

 | The Triangle Metal Puzzle
The Triangle Metal Puzzle - This puzzle looks nice and friendly in its packaging but it is actually one of the most vindictive creations. It can fairly claim its brilliance through the simplicity of its design. But simple to solve, it is not. Totally worthy of its extreme rating and completely brain boggling for anyone who dares to approach it!
