Description

Minima XIII – Expert Packing Puzzle

Minima XIII is a packing puzzle designed by Frederic Boucher and produced by Pelikan Puzzles. The pieces can fit inside without satisfying the true hidden-voxel condition.

Remove the four pieces and repack them so that the differently colored unit is completely concealed inside the box. An arrangement that leaves that unit visible is not the finished solution.

Specifications:

  • Designer: Frederic Boucher
  • Producer: Pelikan Puzzles
  • Difficulty Level: Expert
  • Puzzle Type: Packing Puzzle
  • Material: Padauk, Wenge and Cherry
  • Dimensions: 70 mm × 50 mm × 50 mm (approximately 2.76 in × 1.97 in × 1.97 in)
  • Components: 4 pieces and a box
  • Objective: Repack the four pieces with the contrasting voxel completely hidden.

Features:

  • Hidden-Unit Condition: The contrasting voxel must not be visible from outside.
  • Four-Piece Challenge: A small set supports a demanding constrained packing task.
  • Shaped and Beveled Cuts: The pieces include deliberate angled features.
  • Three-Wood Edition: Padauk, Wenge and Cherry define this Pelikan version.

Why You'll Enjoy It:

Minima XIII is suited to experienced packing solvers who enjoy a condition that changes what counts as solved. It rewards close attention to shape, orientation and the limitations of the enclosure.
