Ages 8 to Adult. Dr. Toy Award. Parents' Choice.
In ancient Macedonia, the great Oracles proclaimed that whoever could solve the Gordian Knot tied by Midas would rule the world. For 400 years the knot remained a mystery until Alexander the Great solved it and went on to rule great kingdoms!
Now you have a chance to take on the Knot! Adults and kids slide, push and pull the pieces to separate them from the cube into the six individual puzzle pieces.
This is a VERY challenging puzzle. A computer was used to design the most difficult way to put six puzzle pieces together! VERY interesting, tactile, and visually pleasing, it's hard to keep your hands off of this puzzle!
Great fun for travel, classrooms, and home alike!
