This is a sliding block puzzle where the object is to move the piece with the Goat on it to the position inside the cage. The cage must be intact with the Goat inside. It is moderately difficult with a minimum of 36 moves required if no mistakes are made. The puzzle dates from 1914. Inspired by the original puzzle in Jerry Slocums "Puzzles Old and New" from 1987, Creative Crafthouse just loved the look and the concept. This is all hardwood construction and the patterns are all deeply laser engraved. Its a beautiful puzzle to look at and should last forever! Comes with base and cover so you can keep all the pieces protected and even pickup a game later on where you left off.

Dimensions: About 8" x 5" case
