The beginnings

Ashton Pitt Ltd brings ideas to life via problem-solving, producing well-engineered mechanical metal puzzles.

From its inception in 2008, when engineer Christopher Pitt was inspired to create the REVOMAZE from an event that happened while doing his engineering apprenticeship, he made the wrong cut in his plastic screwdriver handle.

This error later sparked the idea of inventing hidden mazes in a sleeve, starting with the Blue. The rules were simple: make minimal components and allow quick assembly, while offering a real challenge to the puzzler that exceeds their expectation.

Since then, the range has expanded to over 20 designs and is followed by a passionate worldwide client base. The community is growing, and we have extended our family of products by introducing the VAULTMAZE, 19 mazes that are each sliced into 8 rings; the goal is to find, build, and solve the mazes in order to enter a competition and win an incredible prize of the SUPER GOLIATH PUZZLE (20-ring), which is nearly three times the size of a standard REVOMAZE.

In late December 2023, we released the REVOMAZE in a 'Lite' version as suggested by our customers after a survey, which is lower in weight and price, with smooth play and a pin on the outside that pushes all the way up once solved so cannot be lost.

The new Lite version is aimed at younger and older puzzlers to introduce the REVOMAZE concept, along with giving our current users a new challenge as well as allowing them to share their experience with family and friends.
