Confetto Box (RF-39) was developed systematically. A different maze was madeon the same structure. The top links with the 4 sides. The bottom is thelid. The 4 side plates work with each other. The movement is only openingand closing, with no relation between the opposite sides, and only the topand sides link. In order to achieve these movements, I arrived at thesedesigns.
Maybe this design has the maximum number of steps to open. The totalnumber of steps is 31, and the extracted number of side movements is 11.This is a kind of “Turning Type” puzzle and takes 3 turns to solve it. Willyou see more of this kind of movement design in the future?
