Hey, I'm Aaron.
And today we'll be going through the solution for Minos Box, Minos
Minos, Minos. I dunno. Anyway,
this is a level eight on the Puzzle Master difficulty scale. This puzzle
and many others are available at puzzlemaster.ca.
So the main goal of this puzzle is to open this box.
We can see our dovetail here. Well sort of. It's,
it's kind of a slot deal, but this will slide this way.
We can see it kind of moves already.
That's how it will be taking this off.
We have this spring thing that does nothing right now.
And then we have this ball bearing.
Now this puzzle comes with a diagram of the maze
as spoilers. And this is actually, if we look at it,
this is how it is right now. My ball's around there,
and we're going to be moving it through this maze.
The only tricky part of this maze is this section here where we have to
carefully kind of roll it to the middle and then drop it forward.
It's very easy to go back into either of these crags at the side,
and this is kind of past the window.
So you'll think you may be have it,
but you're probably just in one of these two slots.
But anyway,
hopefully if I get close enough to the camera,
we can see the ball bearing, maybe.
Okay. Yep. We can see it. So,
we will navigate. So I believe we're...
Yeah, we're at the bottom. So we're in that crag.
We are all the way over here now; we've navigated over.
So now we just got to balance it.
Okay.
Carefully balance it back and forth and try to see it.
Okay. Where is it?
I can hear it moving.
Okay. I have a visual again, maybe.
Okay. I must be... let's see.
Okay. Should be in the bottom corner.
If I carefully tilt it around, it should come into view or just
slide immediately over. Oh, I'm trying.
Oh, is it all the way? Where is it? Okay. It's back there.
I'm going to try to lean over this
without being in the shot.
This is just really fiddly and you got to just be patient with
it.
Walk the marble to the center,
even though you probably can't see it in this video.
Hopefully my descriptions are adequate
Oh, at the bottom. I can't even see it.
Oh this is hard to... Okay. I see it now. Okay.
We should be at the top. Yeah. I can see it moving back and forth at the top.
Nope. Nope. Nope. Come on.
Come on.
Is it in there?
It is. Okay. Woo boy.
So we managed to drop it into this hole. This was like this
and we were back and forth in there and we managed to just drop it in.
And it'll move back and forth here, but it's fine. Now that we're in the hole,
you saw me pull the spring and it holds on that ball
bearing. It opens a hole,
the ball bearing drops in, and it holds itself in place.
Now this is the confusing part that isn't well described in the
little blurb on that sheet, is from here,
you actually have to press this down and it has a little bit of
give to it. And then you can pull this open
And that is how you open this.
So.
That's Minos Box or Minos Box. I don't know.
Should probably have looked that up. Anyway, to reset it,
you can just pretty much wiggle it in the maze and guide it back to where it
started. Well, thank you for watching.
