Designer/Maker: Kagen Sound

Cube: 13cm

The Rune Box is an evolution of Kagen's Beast, 83 Move Box, and the five Waterfall Boxes, followed by the Maze Burr and RuneCube. This is the first from the maze box family that is reconfigurable. Made with narra panels and bubinga frame; limited edition of 30. Includes printed 38-move solution for current configuration. Also included is a thumb drive including copies of Kagen's handwritten notes detailing his original three configurations (16, 40, and 104 moves), and a complete analysis of 563 configurations!
