Whip-It
Whip-It
This sliding piece puzzle consists of several discs stacked up into a tower, and they can rotate about a central axle. There are usually 3 such discs (called the Whip-it puzzle, or Puzzle 6) but 6 discs is also quite common in cheaper knock-offs. Along the side of the tower are six columns of sliding pieces, in six colours. The pieces can slide up or down from one disc to another because one of the white pieces is missing leaving a gap. By rotating the discs, the pieces and the gap are moved around to the other columns. There is a version called Varikon, which has 5 colours with 5 balls of each, placed in 5 columns and 5 discs. There is also a gap but this is in the sixth disc, so one column is in effect a bit longer than the others. The same puzzle also exists in versions with 4 columns of 4 balls, and this one has been used as a promotional item for Smarties. This puzzle is the simplest in a family of related puzzles which includes the Babylon Tower, and Missing Link.
