Monolith

The largest, heaviest, and most intricate metal puzzle ever made.

 

The Monolith is a sequential discovery puzzle chest, the aim being to find and access all 8 compartments. The journey takes around 50 moves, and involves finding and using multiple different tools. All drawers are sequentially linked, and some are individual puzzle boxes once removed. There are a number of limited edition prizes to find in various compartments along the way.

The Monolith is made up of over 300 components, stands 420mm high, and weighs in at a whopping 35kg. Solve times have ranged from a few hours to a few weeks.

10 individually numbered chests were made, and all have been sold. No more will ever be made.

 

Chest #1 of 10 was auctioned on eBay in April 2021 for £14300, raising over £3500 for The Big Issue charity: https://www.bigissue.org.uk/donate/
