description Recent Toys Brainstring Original Overview

Brainstring Original is a mechanical spatial puzzle manufactured by the Dutch company Recent Toys, originally invented by Guido Lap. The puzzle consists of a transparent polycube block with elastic bands running through its core and protruding from various sides. To solve it, the player must manipulate the pegs to move the strings, creating patterns or untangling the internal cords so that no strings touch inside the cube. It is designed to challenge spatial reasoning and fine motor skills without relying on mathematical algorithms.

What is the basic solving goal in Brainstring Original?

You manipulate the transparent block until its internal pieces and elastic bands return to the ordered solved pattern. The visible bands make it possible to watch the mechanism change as you work.
