Houdini's Torture Cell

The object of the puzzle is to free Houdini from The Torture Cell. To do that, you’ll have to discover the hidden tools and work out how to use them.

Yes, there are lots of magnets in the puzzle but no “hitting” or “banging” is necessary to solve it. There is a tool to discover for every aspect of the solve.

The theme of the puzzle celebrates Harry Houdini’s first public performance of The Torture Cell at the Circus Busch in Berlin on 12th September 1912.  The original wooden version of Houdini’s Torture Cell was made for 2011 International Puzzle Party which was held in Berlin. That wooden version has been sold out for many years and thus has become quite collectible. This is an accurate, factory-produced version of that same puzzle.

Size of puzzle: 8 cm high and the hex nut at the bottom is 3.5 cm across the diagonal.

Packaged in a plain white box with an enclosed step by step solution sheet.
