This puzzle consists of 4 pieces that combine to form a square.  Will you be able to take it apart.  What's more, these pieces have a secret: each time their arrangement is changed when recreating the original shape, the solution changes.  Are you up to the challenge of completely solving the riddle of this square?

This puzzle is easy to take apart. But their is a special way to put it back together so you can undo it without relying on shaking it or luck.

Easy to (accidentally) solve, but it does go back together in 2 more ways in addition to the original, which both are more difficult to solve than the original setup.

I like this puzzle very much, it is one of my favorite, even though it is not too difficult. Sometimes the ones that are not too difficult, can be be the most fun. The design is very creative, and my favorites are the ones that have personality, like a work of art, it is a little sculpture.

This puzzle looks really cool but it's very easy to solve. In fact it'll probably just fall apart in your hands.

I give it 3 because it looks and feels so elegant but as a puzzle it is a fail. It comes apart too easy. Even though there is a trick to it, there are visible cues to the trick almost immediately you get it moving. Not hard to take apart and once apart you can see the trick making reassembly easy.

Not even close to 6 hanayama stars. 2 could be better rating. Very disappointed with this...

Very pretty puzzle, nice to fiddle with, but it kinda easy. Took it apart in two minutes, put it back together just as fast (probably because i already knew what to do from similar Hanayama puzzle). Not sure why it says arrangement of the pieces changes, when the solution is really the same every time no matter how you hold it, no matter which piece goes where ... I even checked the solution after solving it and it still solves all the same every which way.

Nice puzzle, but really easy. A great concept but a bad realization. I took it apart by accident in 2 minutes and assembled in 5. I'm disapointed. Not recommend.

This puzzle is quite easy to take apart by accident. You're not sure what you did that worked, but it is apart. I had more difficulty putting it back together, but then you have the advantage that you can inspect each piece and see how it works. Not 5 starts in difficulty, but a very well made puzzle.

This puzzle is so easy... This solved the puzzle in the mountains 20 minutes. Changing the placement of the piece is a little harder, but that is not very difficult... At the same level much easier than other puzzles. However, a very neat view.
