OPENING PUZZLES (OPN) are puzzles in which the principle object is to open it, close it, undo it, remove something from it, or otherwise get it to work. They usually comprise a single object or associated parts such as a box with its lid, a padlock and its hasp, or a nut & bolt. The mechanism of the puzzle is not usually apparent, nor do they involve general assembly or disassembly of parts that interlock in 3D.

EPH-OTH	Other puzzle related ephemera	Non-rebus heiroglyphics
The Puzzle Classification was completed in 1999 and in the past 7 years it has only been found necessary to add Sub-Class - OTH-GAME for Games that are related to Puzzles. In 2010 the sub-class -REL was added to ALL main classes to cover the many objects that are found in Puzzle Collections which are related to, but not in themselves, puzzles. New Subclasses are still under consideration : a) for puzzles that look like, for example, TNG but are actually an OPN. Currently OTH-TRIK is for puzzles that require subterfuge in the form of an additional component; or, in other words, for puzzles that are not fully self-contained. b) for "How does it work" puzzles which cannot be included in AMB-POBJ Considering for dropping: - AMB-TURN as they can be included in AMB-HIDD
