"The Magic Craze Image" (aka Magic Maze 2)
and
"The Magic DazeImage"
(aka Magic Maze 3)

After creating the Magic Maze, I present two more interesting puzzles:
Magic Craze (Magic Maze Nr 2) and Magic Daze (Magic Maze Nr 3)

*******************************


Summarizing:

- Magic Maze, is asymmetric, has unique flat solution, but no cubic solution.
- Magic Craze (aka Magic Maze 2), has non-unique flat solution, as well as a non-unique cubic solution.
(i.e. the Magic Craze is easier than the Magic Maze, but it has an extra solution.)
- Magic Daze (aka Magic Maze 3), has unique solutions for both flat and cubic states and it is the hardest of all three Magic Mazes.

By using a special color configuration, the Magic Craze *could* be made with a unique solution, but I personally prefer it the way it is.

The Magic Dino Cube has also two unique solutions, but both of them are in cubic state.



To build this puzzle you will need some strings, plastic tiles, and some nice paper tiles.
For information of how to connect/number the tiles and the strings, visit two brilliant articles here and here,
