Eureka! I've done it.
The goal of these puzzles is to take them apart, or open them in some way. These brainteasers hide their secrets well and you’ll find some very hard puzzles in this group.
For these brainteasers you might have to separate the pieces of the puzzle or sometimes even find just one move that makes the puzzle open or come apart. But even just one move can be a very hard puzzle.
If ever there was a category of puzzles where you would here the word Eureka! when the puzzle is solved then this would be it. Eureka! comes from the Greek heurēka and literally means ‘I have found it’. It’s said to have been uttered by Archimedes when he hit upon a method of determining the purity of gold. For most puzzlers their gold is actually solving a puzzle. And with a take apart puzzle the solution is very often just one quick move, making it even more surprising once you do it. Not always a single move but usually just as satisfying when you get that last move and the puzzle is solved. Of course, the puzzle may even come apart in your hands and you don’t know how. So now you’re left with the next puzzling – putting it back together so you can try to solve it again and really understand how you did it the first time!
