The Triad
Designed for experienced solvers who want a real challenge.
Description
The Triad is a highly challenging mechanical puzzle built around a striking three-way symmetry. Three curved bead tracks radiate from a central rotating core, and will confound all but the most advanced twisty puzzle enthusiasts!
Progress in one direction often disrupts another, forcing you to carefully plan your moves while managing the interactions between all three tracks.
This puzzle is essentially a "triple-Pretzel". It's like trying to solve 3 Pretzel puzzles at once!
The mechanism is smooth and tactile, with beads that glide through the tracks and a rotor that snaps cleanly into alignment. Whether you are actively solving it or simply cycling the beads, the motion is satisfying and highly engaging.
Objective
Difficulty Level: 8/10
3D printed in PLA, a durable plant-based thermoplastic. Keep away from intense heat and don't store in direct sunlight.
⚠️Safety notice: While balls remain securely in tracks under normal use (and our thorough drop testing), deliberate misuse (e.g. prying with tools) may dislodge them, creating a choking hazard. Not suitable for children. Ages 14+.
