Thanks for sharing my idea! I've got some more ideas which need some deeper understanding before you're able to open it (the way it's intended, chapeau, didn't heard about anyone solving it this way yet :P), so I'll hope to send you another one soon! - Tuan Djeems
Any time Djemie ! Thanks for the nice experience and fun solving it! Great puzzle box!! 😎👍
Great job on the puzzle
Nice puzzle box. Really nice idea with Braille. A puzzle that teaches you something.
It is really nice but one part is weird but maybe that is only lack of my information. On last Domino brick we have Brille number 5 but then Normal number 2, that part is a little bit "tricky" but I think it should be all brille or in a different way show the Order.
Braille is tactile alphabet. I don't think anyone besides teachers that teach it is able to make connection between image and meaning. The Idea is great thou.
I’ve been watching too much LPL. As he was fiddling with the box, tensioning by lifting the lid, I kept hearing “Looks like we got a small click out of 1, good click out of 3...”
It's okay; I to thought of LPL when I saw this: I saw the exposed hinge pins and thought. I know how LPL would open this!
Great idea, but I feel like giving the domino dots some tactile feedback would help a lot. If it's completely flat you won't ever think about braille just from watching dominos.
agreed, having the top half that was in braille protrude while leaving the bottom untouched would have been a great hint and shown that the bottom half was not in braille
I don't know about never, once you notice that the dominoes have non-domino dot combinations it's not a huge leap to try and find some kind of numeric or linguistic representation that works in dots, and voila. It's hard, but not impossible.
@@zeikjt Then we're hitting on another aspect. Many people (myself included) won't be able to point out that the domino dots combinations are not valid. I actually have no idea why they're not valid, because I haven't touched dominos in decades. So if that's a trigger for thinking about another interpretation, it's already too narrow. I appreciate the effort in the riddle, it's very smart, but if it relies on you visually recognizing braille or knowing the natural visuals of dominos, it's leaving a huge chunk of potential users in a deep unknown.
Protruding dots would be a natural connection to braille, but then we'd miss the unaligned-domino-dots step, which the creator clearly intended to present. I don't know, I love the chain of thoughts "not valid dominos" > "interpret the points in a different way" > "braille" > solution, but I feel this might only be available to very few people. It's not a self-contained puzzle, so it's up to many riddle and knowledge sensitivities.
@@Nyarlah Well, even if you never knew what Dominoes were they are both drawn on the box and it's in the name of the puzzle. I think it's okay for puzzles to include a bit of learning if you're not familiar with all the aspects so a little googling and image searching such would get you on your way. I think it's even more fun when you have to learn something new to solve a puzzle :)
@@zeikjt Fair point. I like self-contained puzzles, but I have no objections with broader puzzles, it's always good to learn something !
I love how he says “mr puzzle!” It’s the best thing ever
Finally! I figured something out before Mr. Puzzle!!! While he was passing the metal bar around the box, my first thought was "it's not magnetic, the discs are".
Any locksporters on here find it cool that he basically managed to decode the lock using tension and binding without realizing he was basically picking it xD
This is the first of the puzzles that I've been able to figure out before you did. But then again I can read in braille so I had an advantage.
Genius idea! It's a shame that accidentally solving the puzzle is so easy! With a few modifications, this could be an Excalibur level puzzle!
2 possible difficulty increases
1. He should've made it 3 times the height and added layers of locks, spinning the bearing in the middle could've turned the bottom one, spinning the bearing in the bottom could've turned the upper one.
2. Have 2 levels of keys; First you have to spin one bearing 360 degrees to activate lock number two, and the lock number two is the one to open the puzzle.
So many ideas..
@@Izurak couldn't agree more! Awesome concept though!
@@ph143aaf Thanks! I should've formulated myself better but Im not fluent in english hehe
@@Izurak your English was just fine my friend!
False gates or bumps on the underside of the latching panel would make the brute force method more difficult
Ever since I started watching your amazing videos several months ago, I've always thought the same thing:
2:03 "Knowing the solution CAN be reversed - it's called 'forgetting it due to not practicing it', something everyone goes through!"
Wow. I love this design of this puzzle box. I know someone that would cherish this. Thank you for sharing this puzzle with us, Mr. Puzzle. 🖤
The number of dots on the dominos equal the two number's on the top of the box 4+4+2+2 =12 and 3+1+2= 6 sweet detail :)
Is the metal cylinder supposed to be used as a handle? Twisting these little magnets seems a little awkward.
The solution seems like a classic geocaching puzzle. Braille is a somewhat common encoding there, so I actually got it after a few minutes. The number sign just rang a bell.
😁👍
that's a really cool box🦔❄
I can read and write first grade Braille and even with this knowledge/skill, unless the "dots" were raised like the dots in actual Braille, the chances of me "seeing" the dominoes indicating Braille notations would be highly unlikely. A very clever puzzle for the sighted person and the makings or start of a FANTASTIC puzzle for VIPs (visually impaired persons)! With a few changes/modifications this would be a great tool in helping teach someone to learn Braille! Well done to the creator of this puzzle! 😎💪👀👐
Edit: in the pictures of the dominoes indicating the Braille, from left to right: the first one is nearly indistinguishable because of the second dominoe and the second dominoe is not the sign for "7" it is the sign for the letter "x" and the alphabetic wordsign for "it". The number sign for "7" is the letter "g" ; 1=a, 2=b, 3=c, 4=d, 5=e, 6=f, 7=g, 8=h, 9=i, 0=j, the third dominoe is the Strong Groupsign for "ch" and Strong Wordsign for "child"
The fourth dominoe is the Strong Groupsign for "st" and the Strong Wordsign for "still"
UEB Braille standard :
Numeric = dots 3,4,5,6
g/7 = dots 1,2,4,5
e/5 = dots 1,5
i/9 = dots 2,4
What the dominoes pictured actually show/say is;
First: indistinguishable
Second: x,it, dot 1,3,4,6
Third: ch,child, dot 1,6
Fourth: st,still, dot 3,4
Hey! I am a visually impaired person, and while you are correct that it is not the UEB standard, it does in fact say what the creator intended. And yes, I can see, but not well. I started learning braille because at any moment I could lose my sight due to retinal thinning.
Please know I do not mean to be rude in any way, I'm merely letting you know. :]
Another good one Mr. Puzzle, thanks for showing.
I knew it was braille, though that feels like a cheap solution. Especially since a blind person couldn't even read it.
Make sure to check both solutions!
Ist ja irre! Jetzt muss man schon "Fremdsprachen" können, um ein Puzzle zu lösen :-)
Even with using braille, the puzzle is still impossible for blind people
Mr.Puzzle - happy Holidays. Thanks for a great year!
The intended solution is brilliant. Very cool. I never would have thought of that. I thought the dominos did have something to do with the solution in a encrypted way. But not the way they did. Very cool!
Yes you are right!
Marvelous idea, love the look of the box.
Good job as usual Mr.Puzzle. Doing it your way was pretty simple and no over puzzling!🤣 Buy, I honestly had an idea that the numbers on the dominoes had something to do with the solution. I was trying to add the dots and etc,. But, had no idea it was in braille! 😎 That was very ingenious indeed and I never would have gotten it. Another good job Mr.Puzzle!👌👏👏
Steadily doing the same thing you were, with the exact same result!
Steadily doing the same thing you were, with the exact same result!
Same! I was looking at the dots and trying to sort out some kind of mathematical solution with their orientation, grouping, etc. Never even crossed my mind to look at them as Braille.
Being a person who is legally blind and knowing braille i like the idea
My only issue was that yes everything is correct in terms of braille but one the number sign was a bit to hidden ik its a puzzle and u can be to revealing but i mean idk how it look in person but it was like at least dots 5 and 6 were covered almost completely
Never the less its still a good puzzle and i liked that they did that
Also if we want to be really really picky about this the 1 2 3 thing for which lock should have been indicated as
1 = dot 1
2 = dots 1 and 2
And
3 = dots 1 and 4
But its not that big a deal just would have made it more true with how its solution worked but like i said
its cool
Thats all i wanted to say
Just like using the lock picking technique. Best wishes from Northern Ireland.
Yes! Regards from Germany!
Cool I like this puzzle box
I enjoy watching you open puzzle boxes the most. Now it's the "almost" impossible Domino Box. I think it would have been better if he could make the box so the lid isn't so loose. He can make it tight if he swaps out the magnets for like a pin tool. This would let you move the dials with more torque.
That is *really* clever.
Mr Puzzle your videos leave me, as the expression goes;
“gespannt wie ein Flitzebogen”
that is, on the edge of my seat
😅😂
Thank You For These video Loved It!!
I LOVE THIS!!!
Amazing box I like it
HOLY CRAP... BEAUTIFUL BOX.. I LOVE THAT THE SOLUTION IS RIGHT IN YOUR FACE BUT STILL A MYSTERY. AMAZING PUZZLE BOX!
Very well done.
excellent puzzle. excellent video. hopefully this guy will make more puzzles.
That Box Is So Cleanly Made. Looks Almost like a Piece of Cake
It would have been enough to just link his shop, but it was really cool to also shout his yt. Just had to say so, it made me smile
Very clever!
Ingenious!
I love how you say "keep on puzzling"
Pretty cool
It's sooo cool i love it
There is a braille language for many of the languages spoken today. While the move toward braille uniformity, known as Unified English Braille (UEB), has led to many correspondences between the alphabets, the languages themselves are still distinct and unique. So braille is not a language, though it's a common mistake. That aside, your video and other puzzle videos are all outstanding. The way you figure out these puzzles is simply amazing to me, and my favorite part of your videos. I've watched so many of them now. I'm a competitive domino player, and love Sudoku puzzles. However these puzzles must use another part of the brain, or you must be brilliant, because I don't think I could solve 80% of them in a months time.
You actually "lock picked" it open so cool
YES! goteem, issa braille.
The planend solution is absolotly genius!!!
Awesome puzzle! And yes I did notice that there had to be some code. Like I was shouting throughout the video. The puzzle was awesome!!
Amazing!
A very clever encryption.
Nice one!
A puzzle for the blind that the blind couldn't solve 🙄
yea it doesn't seem logical it's a neat idea but plenty of people who have blind family members cant read braille so without some sort of hint when you get this that it's braille most people would need to solve it the same way as Mr.Puzzle
No kidding, if you didn't know the trick, you'd think someone was just trying to get creative with pointillism(Thank you for teaching me that word, Bugs Bunny.), using the domino designs as a canvas.
I think the point lightdark00 refers to is the fact that the dots on the dominoes are not raised, but plain so not even a blind person could feel/read them. Besides, the movable parts are covered by plastic, so not tactile either.
I am able to see and I can read in braille. Its just like learning anything
@@noobletandkitteh I'm interested to know if you got any value out of being able to read it.
Don't think I've ever been here this early!
I play a video game which is called The Secret World (or now, Secret World Legends). In this game there is a lot of puzzle mission and some of them need to know special alphabets.
I am not stranger to that kind of puzzles. I recommed this game to who like video games and puzzle :D
Really impressive
the whole using the piece of metal like it was the magnet was aggravating me alot more than it should have
Makes me glad I spent four years learning braille in Middle School.
That’s a very tricky puzzle but also a very clever idea on how to solve the puzzle good thinking on the part of the manufacturer and congratulations to you for using your own method to solve the puzzle Once again good job lots of fun
Ha Ha. You solved it like the LockPickingLawyer. :-)
Darn clever
It's like picking a pin tumbler lock vs finding the hidden key..
Exactly!
I just love that he used braille in this.I still couldn't figure it out even though I know Braille.
I F@&$+ KNEW IT WAS BRAILLE! I BEAT MR PUZZLE! I'M SO HAPPY.
A teacher show us Braille in 4th grade, great box, i loved it
Cool idea! Expecting someone to know braille is a bit unfair. But I think the way you solved it still counts :) if you want to force someone to interpret a cipher, you have to make the lock “pick proof”
I'm so happy that I could find the right solution!! I alrrady knew the braille alphabet and numbers, so when I looked at the dominos I remmembered them! It's a prove that all aknowledgments we have is useful hahahah Nice puzzle!! 👏👏👏
. . . and the clue of course was the back domino that looks different andchas no classic domino configuration. Very clever, and so obvious when you notice the back configuration... and happen to know braile.
Love 💖
You, sir, have the patience of a saint. I lost my patience when I realized that the 4 o'clock position was not working. I noticed a theme of "4" with the dominos. But congratulations. You are good :)
11:03 This could be a riddle from the Riddler. Batman would probably solve the puzzle on time and save many lives.
*Thanks for the brail in the sub titles.......*
I found it interesting that the top dots of the domino's added to 12 and the bottom half of the domino's added to 6. I thought they had to come into play, but never would have thought braille
I'll be honest, at first the domino on the left, the furthest one I thought it seems similar to what a Braille looked like, but never thought it would really be a Braille code, good puzzle I must say
More live solving!
That was a great puzzle, but I have to say I was yelling at the monitor “use the magnets, not the bar.” Very funny, but easy said from a watching stand point I know, no pressure for me. Loved both solutions.💜
6:05 I can't help but see the screw on the front of the box as eyes and the opening as a mouth, and it sounds like it's talking to you XD
The solution is literally right in front of you! This is an awesome puzzle box. Great video.
Thanks, glad you like it!
I think one of those "100 rooms" games used a similar trick already.
Once you said "it's written in an existing language that most cannot read I immediately thought about brail. Would never have seen it on my own though, genius
I enjoyed this video though the worst part is those who read braille wont be able to solve it as they wont be able to see where to align the discs :( keep it up though mr. Puzzle, I love your videos especially your excitement over puzzles
That's actually one of those I was able to pause the video and figure out. I got the idea that it was braille, even if I can't read it. The first domino is a big clue, and the 2 different style of 2s on the domino confirms it.
What if you lean the box toward the hinges, will that move the keys in the opening position?
When I looked at the domino faces, I noticed the weird placement of pips. I thought it was a logic state puzzle. So for instance, looking at the top half of the dominos, we notice that from right to left, the two pips switch location. So if you take the placement of the front domino's two pips, and the next's location of two pips and overlap them, it makes the four pips in the corners of the 3rd domino. Similar with the bottom half, you take the two pips and overlay against the single pip and you get the three.
Generally, in these kinds of puzzles, they are negated placements. So if two pips are overlaid, they negate each other. If we compare the third domino top (4 pips) to the last (4 pips, oddly placed) we can see that there would need to be a pip in the top left position and the middle right position. For the bottom half, we compare the third domino bottom (3 pips) to the last (0 pips) and so the hidden information would be the same as the 3rd domino's pip positions.
Ultimately, this isn't the way to solve the puzzle, but just a pattern I notice.
I thought about Braille xd
(Thank you Pokemon 😂)
Love the videos Amazing man. Please change the music... 💪 you’re the best 🇺🇸
i love that the hint is literally given on the box but you were like 'screw it im solving it like a mechanical puzzle' lmao
would have been a fairer puzzle if the images of the dominos had their bumps embossed out of or into the surface of the box like actual dominos , so that it would be a bit more apparent to that they were intended to be read that way after more than a few seconds of investigation
This was actually fairly easy, because the first domino was so weird and I remembered that here we have the train seat numbers also in Braille and I remembered that mark, which indicates a number.
It would have been more possible if he called it the blind domino box or the dot box as these can at least be associated with the solution since very few use braille. Well at least those of us who puzzle as most puzzles would be impossible without sight.
I though the solution was 7 - 3 - 4, the obvious number of dots (i ignored the first one, I thought it was just to show you that the dominos were the clue for the 3 locks) so I guessed wrong. :)
The clock thing was super obvious to me, but the brail thing however was very much not obvious haha.
I even knew the braille symbol for "Number", but I just didn't think of it. I was searching some mathematical way.
It's okay it's good thing to do from your side
you used a traditional combination lock solution
Now we know how engineers store dominos. Haha.
the top on is 3 o clock position middle 1oclock and bottom 2oclock. only one the first three dominoes is the bottom number of dots shown, this is my prediction for how to open the box
Nice review! No way for me to find out the intended solution. I think those are shielded bearings, not bearings with washers. Could be wrong though
They are standard ABEC bearings as used for inline skates.
Since I know Braille, I figured it out quickly. ^^
I know I'm late to this video, but I think I might know the code. There are 3 circles, and 4 domino pieces. In between the pieces are 3 spaces. Since the numbers on the pieces don't make sense in how they are arranged. it might be an add and redact kind of math puzzle. If you add the dots of the 2 left domino pieces on top of each other, and remove the dots where there are 2, you are left with 5. If you do the same to the middle 2 pieces, it makes 4, and the 2 right ones make 7. The circles represent clocks because of the 12 on top and 6 on the bottom, so the 5, 4 and 7 are probably the time on those clocks.
well nevermind haha
I didn't realize it was braille, but what I did see was a 9, 7 and 5 abstractly hidden within the dots. Something tells me that this was intended to throw people off because while the numbers are correct, they are not in the correct order.
I would have died before I guessed Braille! I was too busy adding up dot combinations.
I noticed there are twelve dots along the top halves of the dominos tiles; and six along the bottom. Does that mean anything?
Great idea, i like your channel i sub to you.
Hm. Looks like a v2 might need some false gates to prevent accidental lockpicking. Or I suppose that might just make that solution a bit more enjoyable.
Still easier than *THE GIRAFFE PUZZLE*
I thought Braille as you were first examining the dominos, but assumed all eight halves would be characters and discarded the idea since the 3 isn't a valid configuration.
can you solve the puzzle Cicada 3301 round 3
nice design and idea
