Tokyo, we have a problem SD puzzle box
30 September 2025Released and sold out at IPP42, Tokyo in September 2025. 20 puzzles made to date (31/12/2025). There should be some more made in time for…

The puzzle box shell is a “donor” puzzle box called “Long Life” made in China by MIToys. None of the original puzzle solution is used.
All puzzling to open the box is the creation of Brian Young.
The puzzle is to find the Tokyo Cherry Blossom.
If you got back to earth after the Apollo 13 mission, it’s now time to take off again in Tokyo.
Now there are nearly twice as many steps (locks) plus the original steps that were in the Houston version of the puzzle.
Despite appearances, there is surprisingly very little dexterity and hardly any blind moves. There have been tools included for each challenge along the way to enable you to minimise the use of dexterity.
