History & Trivia
Disentanglement puzzles featuring horseshoes have a long tradition, particularly in rustic puzzle designs.

Packaged in a small matchbox, it's a portable puzzle designed to challenge players while on the go. The horseshoe motif is a nod to traditional puzzles with symbolic designs. Designers often draw from historical inspiration, creating puzzles that are simple yet devilishly difficult. The matchbox format again speaks to a desire for portability and affordability.
