Your questions, answered.
How long does it take to build?
Intrism Icon takes around 2-4 hours for most people to assemble. Experience builders can usually assemble it in less time.
What is the story behind the name "Icon"
We wanted to make a product inspired by our logo (or, "icon") because we love that the isometric view of a cube is a perfect hexagon. Due to this unique shape and the angles it creates, the building process of Icon is unlike any of our other models.
What's the difference between Intrism Icon and the other models?
Intrism Icon is our first non-cube design. It is similar to Level One in that the marble cannot fall off the track, but this time the marble can come completely out of the maze. It's incredibly satisfying to solve it!
Additionally, Intrism Icon is our first model that can be displayed on the wall. The wood tones and aesthetic of the model really make it pop in any room.
Can you disassemble and assemble the puzzle again?
Intrism puzzles are designed to be assembled once, but you can play the maze endlessly.
How hard is the maze to solve?
Intrism Icon is more difficult than the size of it may lead you to believe. Because the marble passes between two layers, it introduces an entirely new level of challege compared to a single layer design. Most people usually solve the maze between 10 minutes and an hour.
Can the marble fall off the track?
Intrism Icon is designed so the marble cannot fall off the track, but it does come out of the maze entirely when solved from the center outward.
When the marble is in the center, there is no risk of it falling out of the maze.
Can you stain or varnish the wood?
Yes & yes! Adding your own pop of color truly makes it one-of-a-kind. We don't recommend using paint which could increase the thickness of the pieces, but acrylic markers work great.
