Prison

Prison is far more devious than it first appears. Designed by Lucie Pauwels and crafted with Pelikan’s signature precision, this beautifully finished wooden puzzle invites you to place all seven “inmates” inside the frame… but that’s only the beginning.

At first glance, it looks like a simple packing challenge. But lift the magnet‑secured top—revealing full access to the interior—and the true objective becomes clear: arrange every piece so that once the roof is replaced, nothing can slide out. That’s the heart of this clever anti‑slide puzzle, and it transforms a seemingly straightforward task into a deeply satisfying test of spatial reasoning.

Smooth hardwood construction, tight tolerances, and an elegant mechanical concept make Prison a standout for collectors and anyone who enjoys puzzles that reveal their trick only after you’ve underestimated them.
