Abstract
A 3-D magnetic puzzle is implemented as sphere consisting of movable sectors configured to move about a center piece. The movable sectors are configured to host movable elements configured to change a state of the 3-D magnetic puzzle, wherein: the Movable sectors are configured to change their positioning relative to each other; and the movable sectors include sphere segments with cavities configured to accommodate the movable elements comprising permanent magnets. Each of the movable elements is configured to move inside the cavity responsive to a magnetic field provided by the permanent magnets responsive to the movable sectors change their positioning relative to each other.
