Background
Are you a sinner or a winner? Sinistry is a collection of 7 puzzle boxes with art toys inside. Sinistry stands for Sin and mystery as you complete the 9 different steps of the puzzle, and unravel the mystery of the box to be able to open it. This collection is based on the seven deadly sins and Dante’s inferno theory. Each box is different, in terms of actions, solutions, and hints. The toys inside the box represent these sins as well, meaning that each has its own unique expression, stance, action and outfit.
