Metal Puzzles 

Unlock Metal Puzzle metal puzzles

Metal puzzles are wire disentanglement puzzles. Two or more bent pieces are linked together, and your task is to separate them. Force won't help here. You need to find the right position and sequence of moves. Once you know how to do it, there's a second challenge: putting the puzzle back together. In this category you'll find Unlock Metal Puzzle sets by Zcube. Each set contains anywhere from a few to a few dozen different puzzles, so you get a whole collection of brain teasers at once.

How do the Unlock Metal Puzzle sets differ?

All the puzzles work the same way. The sets differ mainly in the number of puzzles in the box:

• Unlock Metal Puzzle 8pcs contains eight puzzles. It's the smallest set and a good first taste of this type of puzzle. The model has been on the market since 2019, and according to the specifications it measures 54 mm.
• Unlock Metal Puzzle 12pcs includes twelve different puzzles, with solving instructions on the back of the box.
• Unlock Metal Puzzle 16pcs includes sixteen different puzzles. The solving instructions are also on the back of the box.
• Unlock Metal Puzzle 32pcs has the most puzzles in this category. It's a great choice when several people will be using the puzzles or when you want plenty of challenges to last you a long time.

Which metal puzzle set should you choose?

If you just want to find out whether you enjoy solving metal disentanglement puzzles, the 8pcs set is enough. For sharing with siblings, friends or a class, the 16pcs and 32pcs sets are a better fit, as everyone can work on a different puzzle. In the larger sets, the difficulty of individual puzzles usually varies. Some take a few minutes to solve, while others will keep you busy for longer. The instructions on the back of the box in the 12pcs and 16pcs sets come in handy when you get stuck or can't remember how to put a puzzle back together.

Who are metal puzzles for?

They're a great choice for people who like puzzle cubes but want to try a different kind of challenge. Here you don't learn algorithms. Instead, you watch how the pieces overlap and picture how to turn them. The puzzles are small, so they're easy to take on a trip or to school. They also work well as a small add-on to a gift.
