Like most wooden puzzle boxes, this looks beautiful, this is the best of the puzzles from ESC WELT, but it still somewhat suffer from parts getting stuck.
The puzzle is a bit short since there is not that many things to solve and I had some issues with moving the wooden parts of one of the puzzles(it was clear that what I had to do)
So I can recommend this but be ready to twist and turn things a bit to get them loose(no force)
The Quest Pyramid is a laser-cut puzzlebox, resembling a great Egyptian pyramid. Despite only being slightly physically larger than a Cluebox, it is significantly heavier and somehow feels more imposing - more like a small tabletop game than a handheld game.
Completing the pyramid requires a sequential series of steps to be performed based on puzzles contained on all sides of the pyramid. No language or previous knowledge is required - and puzzles require mere observation, association, and mechanical interaction. I liked the thematic interpretation, but I failed to be gripped by the puzzles themselves - they were a little bit too simplistic, and unfortunately there simply wasn't enough content to make this stand as a full game in its own right - it's more of an intriguing tabletop curiosity.
