We haven't named this the 3D Labyrinth Puzzle after the Greek mythological labyrinths for nothing. Now, there may not be a Minotaur lurking in there, but this puzzle is so skilfully designed - and nigh on impossible to crack - that it had us puzzling over it for hours.
The objective is to guide the two balls inside the puzzle from the octagonal entrance hole all the way to the round exit hole. Sound easy enough? Think again! There are 26 'rooms' within the spherical puzzle, and the balls will only pass through the rooms and their holes when the colours match up on both sides of the hole.
It involves a lot of twisting and turning, biting your tongue in concentration and snapping at anyone who dares interrupt your train of thought to get these colours lined up, and the balls to the exit, but boy is it satisfying!

Customer Reviews for Labyrinth Puzzle
I love these puzzle type games, so waiting with bated breath for this damn-near-impossible-to-win game! After 2 days of twisting, turning, throwing away in frustration (and retrieving immediately - highly addictive!), I finally set those balls free! Would not recommend for use in work time - my workload has suffered severely!!

First there was elation at having a new toy. Then came confusion, annoyance, frustration and paranoia all closely followed by embarrassment at the thought of having to call IWOOT to suggest that the puzzle had been put together incorrectly as I couldn't do it. SUDDENLY in a second of madness, an unscheduled twist of the wrist and the balls were in a different chamber... WOW!! What a thrill - I haven't been able to put it down since. A VERY rewarding challenge!!

At first it doesn't look all that hard, but you soon realise this puzzle is going to take all year to complete. When first got it in the post i opened up and started twisting and turning it in fustration with people shouting out suggestions. After a short while i managed to move into another chamber(yes!). Since then i have moved several chambers but i can't figure out how this thing is possible. If you are going to buy this item GOODLUCK at completing the god dam thing.

I have always loved my puzzles, but this thing takes the biscuit! I find myself twisting in utter madness! The perfect gift for the person that thinks they can solve any puzzle.

Amazing puzzle after two hours of twisting and getting frustrated, managed to free the balls. Have now worked out the system, look closely at the small codes on the stickers and use these to help identify identical holes. Once your have worked it ut it all becomes too clear. Bring on the next one.
Will keep people amused for hours.
