Rook Cast Chess Puzzle - Hanayama Chess Puzzle

Lazy puzzle design.

I was excited to get this puzzle. After taking about 15 seconds to solve it the excitement dissolved to disappointment. If you want to pay nearly $40 for a metal chess piece that’s fine but expect a lazy design on the puzzle.

While this puzzle may be easy to solve, I enjoy the beautiful finish and it is such a handsome piece to display in any setting.
