Intermediate Puzzles

Heart Loop

This FIDDL' WIDDIT original is a slightly more difficult presentation of the same problem as the Heart in a Box. But what do you do with those floppy rings? They increase the challenge a notch. The Heart Loop is a good bridge to more complicated puzzles in our 'Heart Series'.

Mini Ring Ladder

This 5-step, abbreviated version of the ancient, classic 47-step Ring Ladder is intended to be your key to seeing the elegant pattern that unlocks them both. The original, larger version is almost automatically overwhelming. The 'mini' version is a confidence builder for the classic of classics.

Ring Trapeze

Don't let this clever 1921 patent be confused with the more common 'Horseshoe and Ring' puzzle that somewhat resembles it. This one is harder and very tricky.

Heartful Dodger

This 1910 invention combines elements of several puzzle families into one three piece, mid-level stumper. This rarely seen teaser plays well with others and will with you too!

Heart to Heart

We've tweaked this old favorite Basic level puzzle by replacing rigid rings with floppy ones, and son-of-a-gun if it doesn't become a sweet  intermediate. For the hopelessly sentimental or the helplessly curious--two intertwined hearts in need of separating...and putting back together, of course.

Hobblitts

Our thanks to friend Vern West for calling this American classic to our attention. This horse hobble puzzle was a favorite in the last half of the 19th century. It has frustrated more than a few horse thieves...and puzzlers!
