About

Moeraki Game Nr. 3 is a puzzle with two intersecting looped tracks, each containing a number of coloured beads. The tracks intersect at four places, so they share four of the beads. All the beads of a loop can move along the track in unison, so the colours can be mixed. In the solved position, the parts of the tracks between and including the intersections contain white transparent beads which form a 5 by 5 square. The four remaining sections of the tracks, the curved outer ends of the loops, each have eight beads of a single colour. Moeraki is the name of a series of puzzle games designed by Kasimir Landowski, all consisting of a number of intersecting tracks containing beads. Game number 4 has also been manufactured physically, the others exist only as software. It is named after large rounded stones that can be found in New Zealand.
