Titans’s Treasure Puzzle Lock by Sashko Peshevski

Here’s an excerpt from Allard’s blog:

“Inside the packet there’s a little introductory booklet with half a key glued to the front of it…the booklet makes it clear that that half of the key is purely there for decoration – you don’t use it in solving the puzzle. Good to know. 

The booklet gives you the back story about the lock which effectively collapses into: using the sawn-off half-a-key (and any other tools you can find), open the lock and find the pearl, then reset it for the next puzzlist. 

OK – so hurl yourself in puzzling-mode and examine what you have… the padlock seems to be a little butchered, with a couple of obvious grub screws disturbing the otherwise unblemished surface. The key will fit in the keyhole – a bit – but not enough to be useful… and it certainly won’t turn the barrel.”

“This handmade puzzle lock is designed by Sashko Peshevski from Sweden and is a prequel design to Her Key to the Treasure Puzzle Lock.

The Story: 

“Once upon a time, there was a Titan who was very wealthy and one day he decided to hide his treasure from the other evil forces and lock it. He engraved his name on the lock and marked this special lock with 'K'. Unfortunately he lost his precious treasure. Decades passed and now everyone thinks that the treasure is lost forever.

Is the Titan's treasure lost forever?

Find the hidden treasure guarded by the Titan!
After the treasure is found, hide it again so no one will find it.

No external tools are needed or allowed to be used for finding the treasure 🤔

An innovative design that will leave you wondering where to start...  Ok so what do you have to work with? A broken key? A neat and difficult puzzle with a great story!”
