The invisible maze

Everything here evolves around the power of your imagination. The invisible maze consists of a bolt and a ring containing a hidden maze.

Apply and exercise your imagination by attempting to play the ring off the bolt by pushing and turning it. You will quickly be pulled into the spell of the invisible maze.

The attraction of the game is seeing how the ring can be played off from the bolt, anyone who sees this will not be able to resist having a go at experiencing it for themselves. Before each new game, the ring can be placed back in its starting position in one swift maneuver. Over a small tab on the bolt, and with a patented clicking transition, the ring can be vertically led through the hidden maze and pushed to the beginning. The game can now start again.

This game boosts your creativity and among other things allows you to exercise your imagination, and it is exactly for these reasons why the invisible maze is so beneficial. Subsequently it is unsurprising that many people find it easier to solve the maze with their eyes closed and thereby introducing the maze in the minds eye.

Moreover, in this creative puzzle it is not about how quickly you can solve it but the fact that you immerse yourself into it, remain calm, have fun and reflect on what's going on- thus encouraging your creativity.

The Team-Belt

“Without a functioning team, you can’t find good ideas” A core feature of any well functioning team is that the team members must be able to rely on one another.

However, experience has shown that people find it hard to ‘fall’ and then let themselves be ‘caught’ by others. The team- belt is a very physical activity in the sense that as a participant you actually feel surrounded and supported by the team- here there is “perceptible” growth in trust.

Kreativpuzzle - Magic Nails

New Angle! Impossible? Think again! - With this creative puzzle your team is faced with a seemingly impossible task - but watch, and you’ll see how your team grows and learns from it.

„This task is unsolvable!“ That, or something along those lines, is often how participants react when you present them with the nail test - and it's no wonder. Ask yourself the following: 17 out of 18 nails should be freely balancing on the one remaining nail, so that none of the 17 nails are touching the ground.

This is an ideal metaphor when working in groups who, in the real working environment, find themselves faced with seemingly hopeless situations and must come up with creative and new solutions in a team.
