"The Magic Auto" Puzzle
Some technical information
|
There are a few magics that I was planning to do since last year and this is one of them. "Magic Auto" is a 12-tile magic, but it has nothing to do with the 12-tile magic from Rubiks we all know. Or is it the same? (well it is not the same, but I won't go into details here...!) One of the reasons I named it Magic Auto, is because its shape/pitch also resembles the number 8, which is called "Otto" in Italian and sounds exactly the same. It can get mixed up quite badly, but don't let it deter you, for it is one of the easiest magics to solve (in my opinion). Front side has the theme taken from the 70s(!!!) video game Laguna Racer. Back side has the theme taken from the 80s video game Burnin' Rubber. Here is the other solution picture: |
To build this puzzle you will need some strings, plastic tiles, and some nice
paper tiles.
