Abstract
A spherical puzzle comprising a first semi-spherical shell engaged with a second semi-spherical shell. Each shell has four triangular panels held by a plate with the four triangular panels on each plate forming an intersecting track running perpendicularly along an x and y axis. The track on the x axis of the second semi-spherical shell forms a continuous track with the track on the x axis of the first semi-spherical shell and the track on the y axis of the second semi-spherical shell forms a continuous track with the track on the y axis of the first semi-spherical shell. A plurality of sliding tiles forming a predetermined pattern or design are placed on the intersecting tracks. One semi-spherical shell can rotate relative to the other semi-spherical shell about an equatorial axis.
