The Labyrinth Box is basically a two-part print. One of the parts is a maze which is also known as a labyrinth carved on its surface. The other part is the cap which comes with a pin. The cap goes on top of the labyrinth. The moment you start removing the cap, the pin starts getting directed by the carvings. To separate both the pieces, you have to make the pin follow the maze in the correct direction. If you can’t solve the maze, you can’t open the box!
