Hooker Soma is an invention by George Miller. The puzzle is based on the classic Soma Cube puzzle by Piet Hein. George glued six large squares to the six of the pieces, such that they form hooks. This turns a dissection puzzle into an interlocking one. The seventh "V" piece is added to fill the cube. At least two pieces need to move together in the first move to take the puzzle apart. The puzzle has a unique solution.
