This pocket puzzle is a fun fidget toy that comes apart somewhat easily but requires considerable thought to reassemble. Inspired by the swirling shapes of the milky way, Galaxy can flex and flutter to create pleasing geometries as it rotates in three dimensions. One specific configuration will allow you to separate the four pieces. But remember, the universe tends toward a state of chaos, hence Galaxy is much easier to take apart than it is to put back together. Before disassembling the puzzle, pay careful attention to the ways the circular arms fit in the cylindrical sleeves to create a flexible assembly. A playful, attractive and challenging design from Bram Cohen from the United States.

The way it flexes and flutters between my fingers is weirdly calming, but getting those swirling pieces lined back up took me a solid ten minutes the first time. It pops apart way easier than it goes together, which is honestly the whole point.

I keep this on my desk and it's become my go-to break between meetings. The pieces flex and flutter apart with almost no effort, but getting that swirling shape back together takes me a solid few minutes of real thinking.

The way the pieces swirl apart when I fidget with it is weirdly calming, but getting them back into that milky way pattern actually takes real focus. Took me a solid ten minutes the first time. It's small enough to toss in my bag without noticing.
