The puzzle box contains 18 wooden blocks which consist of four basic forms: I (4), L (6), S (2), C (6). By joining the circular faces end to end on a horizontal surface, the building blocks can be assembled in a multitude of ways that create free-standing circuits, with no beginning or end.

Puzzle No. Blocks I L S C Description Solution
1 2 2 Use 2 C blocks to form the simplest circuit, the only one consisting of 2 blocks only.
2 3 2 1 Use 2 L blocks and 1 C to form the only circuit consisting of 3 blocks.
3 4 2 2 Use 2 L blocks and 2 C to form a free-standing circuit consisting of 4 blocks.
