My mom gets me a new puzzle like this for Christmas every year. I usually have them solved within minutes, but this year I got this puzzle and I gotta say, it is by far the most difficult I've ever done. It took me a total of 11 hours to solve. Let me tell you, when I got that first piece off, the amount of satisfaction and joy I felt was incredible.. I had to find a video showing how to solve it just to see if I did it right. I'm only watching the first half of this video as I now have to figure out how to put it back together. But I am going to wait till tomorrow to try. I don't want to just put it back together from memory. I want to figure it out on my own.

I got an Enigma puzzle a couple years ago as a gift and have had it on my desk ever since unsolved. Your video (with frequent stop-back-repeat) makes the solution clear. Thanks much.

Not only a great solve of a great puzzle, but a fantastic explanation! I took mine apart and left it apart for about 3 years, and forgot what the original position was... now I have it! Thanks!

holy mother of god... how do people invent such puzzles?! that is awesome. the video explains the mechanism really well, nontheless i am baffled by the puzzle

Thanks! Nice exposition. There are two orientations. This starts with one piece flipped from the other orientation. I was stuck for a day or two until I found your solution. Worked like a charm! And for those here who are stuck because a piece is flipped, just look for the solution from Mr. Puzzle for the other orientation.

It’s challenging enough just following along with this video. I can’t imagine figuring it out from scratch.

Thank goodness I found this video, my gosh I can finally sleep

My dad has been working on this puzzle for DAYS. I sat down and got it apart and I was glad to find this video to put it back together for my dad. c:

I bought one for a friend we were working for hours and bc of this vid we solved it thx to help 😊❤

Love this one. It's one of the best puzzles around, together with the Cast Elk.

i had spent 3 years on this puzzle thank you for shong me how to solve it

You did the video perfectly. Everything is clearly visible in stop-motion. Thank you very much.

Just needed a hint, thanks! The spacing on mine was messed up evidently and the very first move you showed in the video, was not possible without excessive force so I just assumed it was not the correct way. Now that I know, I spread the gap a little and can continue my efforts with no more hint hopefully!

That's amazing! There are multiple ways to achieve this puzzle!

I want to congratulate you for solving the Enigma puzzle. I've been grappling with it for a few weeks and it's quite a challenge. NOT gonn watch the solution video, though, unless/until I solve it!

THANK YOOUUUUUUU, ive had this 4 1 year, and then ive been looking for videos. Only yours matches mine wtf!!!!!!! Im glad

Thx so mutch that was fun going along with you

We have a ton of these at work. No way I would solve that one. Thanks for the video! I'll try to learn it now.

I don't know where I went wrong. I was following the steps but I somehow ended up with pieces backwards and I can neither finish putting it back together nor take it back apart. I am beyond stuck...

I failed completely, and after months, looked up the solution in another video, which claimed it required force! I thought the puzzle had cheated me, but then I found this video, and you explained it so well, and it required no force... I feel a bit embarrassed how badly I did, but thanks so much for posting this. I'm glad I looked it up again.

Thanks man i really needed this bcus i woudnt stop until i finished it

I love these types of puzzles

Very good explanation, because all rotations are explained always relative to the center piece "base". This keeps it clear.

I forced it a bit and managed to glitch it in an illegal configuration. That made taking it back apart even more challenging - I took inspiration from this video to eventually sort it out :😂

watch this video with your eyes closed lmao

your like a freaking genies thanks for helping me

I am here to NOT watch the solution. I own the Delta (level 3?), and solved it easily within ten minutes of starting. The Enigma is the second of this puzzle series that I’ve obtained, and I’ve had it for several weeks and still have not solved it. I’m going to give myself a little more time before I give up and resort to watching this solution; but I’m glad to see that it’s here in case I need it. Thanks. P.S. Get the Delta. It may be easy, but it is SO MUCH FUN to take apart and put back together!

thank you!

Mine will NOT make the move you are doing at about the 1:15 mark. is it possible I have a bent or defective piece?

I got the puzzle apart say myself, but I can't for the life of me get it back together.

I can solve that in 5 seconds! With a pipe cutter...

Thanks for the help bro

Great video.

Wait there is different versions of this same puzzle?

I have this exact puzzle but it is stuck in a different position then shown on thi video.

Thank you.

Thanks

Amazing Tutorial, here I am thinking that I broke it and made it impossible, then I watched this and saw that I actually did it right.

what a genious riddle, SPOILER alarm ;_D

I got thw bottle opener off but the super long tail one is like flipped on it. I cant get it off and if anyone can help please do

This took me at least 12 hours to take apart (Total) and I managed to put it together. But with every piece in the incorrect orientation, apparently I had done it the way which "Puzzle Guy" did. So I finally decided to watch the video, but I don't plan on messing with this puzzle again, if I'm honest it seems a bit too obvious as what to do and it's rather repetitive with that one piece which you slide the Hanayama piece and the long curved loop piece. Yes it took almost half a day total, but it didn't take long to see what I had to do.

Thanks this video was very clear, I solved it!

Thank you, floor.

Is this video mirrored? My puzzle is completely opposite from yours?

how did u get that first piece off

Yeah mine does not do that. The last move to get it apart I can't get mine to do that last pass before you line up the slot with the solid piece. The one I have just doesn't have enough clearance. It gets bound up and no amount of wiggling and moving will allow it to by pass freely. I was starting to get really pissed because I already had the Hanayama piece off but those two just couldn't/wouldn't come apart. I'm just happy to know that I had it right but the puzzle itself was causing the interference.

My messing around with it has somehow gotten the pieces backwards 😳🙄 still trying to solve it and I’ve owned it for 2 years lol.

Man I love this puzzle but my one issue is that some of the moves don’t feel promising unless the angle is PERFECT so it’s like you tend to not try certain things

Eric Buffington, I had no problem on this one. Can you help me with "The Incredible Giraffe Puzzle" before they commit me? Heck I need a specialist.

My puzzle is messed up and I don't know how to get it back to the starting position

How the hell did he "roll it back" I want to crack my head by banging on the wall... More

this one felt tougher to solve than my level 6 puzzle........

I found this puzzle required two different moves that needed a bit of force, pressure or flexing.

I thought they were supposed to all pull apart :p

I appreciate the tutorial but the one thing that would've made this much easier to follow was less twisting and jiggling of the pieces unnecessarily. Thank you again though

👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻

I can't even reach the starting position, my lock is locked forever

I love it and hate it all at the same time😂😠

i can finally rest.

I lub this

My enigma puzzle is screwed beyond solving. 😢😢😢

man, i knew something was wrong, my long piece is on backwards won't turn once i get both pieces on the base fml

I still need help I did mine wrong

kanser / real hard :)

the base should be called the" TREBLE"!!!

I think your initial position is actually wrong, making the puzzle rather easy(definitely not a level6). The middle piece is upside down in your vid I’m afraid.

This is insanely hard. I gave up after hours of trying because I have a life 😂

Already solved it...I'm just looking for the video to see if you solved it the same way I solved it. 😏

My dumbass coworkers put the puzzle together wrong, so now I don't know how to fix it

I watched the video and still can't do it. Lmao 🤣🤣🤣 I think I jammed my pieces together wrong. 🤷‍♂️🤦‍♂️

That's like solving a Rubik's cube by taking off the stickers. Cheater!!! LOL

I got to a certain part without cheating but ive been stuck for an hour and my cousin just found me cheating 😂👎😬😱

who invented that?

I, I never did that.......

I swore this puzzle was unsolvable

I think i messed up...my peices wont switch ajfgh

Свинья. Лишил ребёнка радости самому собрать.

You move too fast

Slow the hell down

You really need better directions you shaking it like your having a seizure really doesn’t help at all at 4:02

my cousin got this for me and i'm an idiot so im cheating lol

Y'all cheating 😂😂

what's the point of looking up the solution to the puzzle? You've just wasted your money if you watch this and don't already know the solution

Wasnt helpful i legit got the first one of by messing around and second one when i was searching threw vid and toased down on bed

boring
