If you take four, and then add four, and then take away, add, subtract, add, add, multiply by, subtract, raise to the power of, divide by, and add four, and then find the reciprocol, what do you get? Of course, it's obviously 0.058823529411764705882352941176471! Duhhh!
Four is the answer to all!

Good try, hatkirby!
Unfortunately, the problem with this puzzle is not finding the key. It's finding a crate to work with. I don't see a way of getting one of the crates out of the machine, so I would have to declare this one impossible. If you would add a '1' crate somewhere outside the machine, then it would become possible to solve.

Thanks, Rene, for pointing that out. I've fixed that now in zesiman. I hope it's possible now because I like designing puzzles and seeing them done. |

New Level! jikolyf - Gum up the Works Those are nice solutions Timbo & Rene. I've put Rene's at the top because that one was archived. |

This isn't always solvable (for example if all the random crates you get are even and the barrel is odd). It's also quite tamper-resistant; I could get it to run forever, but I couldn't make it gum up early. |

That is the most ingenious method of solving an impossible puzzle that I have ever seen.

So I need to add in something that will ensure that there is always an even and an odd crate? (Thanks everybody for testing my puzzles like this!  ) |

Here's a "black market" solution to zesiman: bavarag. No editing was done in sandbox mode, yet the "solution" shouldn't be possible under the normal rules. EDIT: lefirug does the same thing in a legal manner. Further EDIT: pydidyv is still unsolvable. Remove that copier and it'll work better. |

That "black-market" solution couldn't have been possible without the Sandbox because it replaced a 0 Barrel with a dozer. Anyway, I've added Null Spaces to the inside of the machine to stop the "black-market" solutions in doluxub. I don't even remember adding that copier in! I think it was an accident. I've removed it now, in zybyxib. I'm working on another puzzle now, be prepared! |

That's a nice solution Rene! Anyway, new puzzle! Calculate the Answer ( mimutif) is not a design puzzle. It's a logic puzzle. What 6 crates do you have to place in the top right corner for the correct answer to be output? |
