Abstract
We study the geometric aspects of the magic trick called Gozinta Boxes. We generalize Gozinta Boxes to other dimensions, and we show that in three and higher dimensions, the maximum number of boxes is 3, and in two dimensions, the maximum is 4. We discuss other properties of Gozinta Boxes and provide a plethora of examples.
