Description
Minima 5 – Advanced Packing Puzzle
Minima 5 is a packing puzzle designed by Frederic Boucher and produced by Pelikan Puzzles. Four pieces share a box whose small windows impose unusual limits.
Pack all 4 pieces into the box with no gaps visible through its openings. Work out how the pieces can reach their final positions through the limited access, rather than only arranging them outside the box.
