The Lotus Flower puzzle is incredibly difficult and will keep you engaged as you work towards discovering its solution. The reward of solving this puzzle is a fulfilling experience. To solve the Lotus puzzle, you'll need to think creatively outside the box and all your puzzle knowledge powers.  The Lotus Flower Puzzle is an ingeniously designed sequential discovery puzzle by Wil Strijbos. The Lotus puzzle was inspired by Wil's earlier creation, the Yen Puzzle, which featured a wooden frame holding a Yen Coin. (There is a small black pin in the puzzle that shouldn't be removed as it's not relevant to the solution. Also, the Lotus puzzle is spring-loaded, making it even more intriguing. You won't need magnets, external tools, or force to solve it).   Wil Strijbos's standard of high-quality design makes the Lotus puzzle a must-have for puzzle collectors.
