Interlocked is a three-dimensional brain teaser
Interlocked takes that spirit and turns it into a beautiful Flash game. It's a good thing the soundtrack is soothing, because the game itself can get pretty frustrating.
At the start of each level, you're presented with a box built out of blocks in different colors. You can click and drag the mouse to rotate the box any which way. Once you decide you want to shift a part of the box, hit SPACE to switch into "move" mode. You can then click any part of the box and drag it. Of course, you can only move a part as long as nothing is in its way. So it becomes a matter of understanding how the box is built, and what parts you need to move around so you could eventually take the box apart.
It's a tricky, difficult game, but it's a great brain teaser -- and definitely a keeper.

That is pretty awesome.
One thing I noticed from your screenshot, and confirmed through playing it, is that the sharp, right-angled edges of the shapes make it hard to see some details, unless you're constantly inspecting the puzzle.
For example, in your screenshot it's hard to tell if the blue shape is flat-bottomed and resting on the orange shape, or if the blue protrudes downwards through a hole in the orange.
But I still love it, and am definitely keeping it.
Thanks!

Did you just Lego as the plural form of Lego? ...
I'd never thought of that, I always called them Legos...
Touche ;)
