Slats Packing Puzzle
At first glance, Slats looks simple: a square frame, four identical pieces, and a small red heart. But this puzzle is much trickier than it appears.
The challenge is to braid all four slats into the frame. Each piece is made of 3 layered slats, with the middle layer interacting with the frame itself, creating a surprisingly complex packing problem. It requires ingenuity, patience, and a sharp eye for how the pieces weave together.
And if that’s not enough, there’s an extra challenge included: the Bloody Heart. Can you hide the small red heart inside the frame together with all four slats?
A clever and visually satisfying packing puzzle that offers more depth than you’d expect from its clean, minimal design.
