(*) In his book published in 1976, William Benson points out that he built this 32nd-order trimagic square as far back as 1949.

The table above only lists the same order multimagic square which is first discovered.

Since the beginning of 2006 we successfully construct 13,14,15 order bimagic square, so far, have been solve all <100 order bimagic square.

More than 3 multimagic square is the difficult problem. Now find the small order trimagic square only William h. Benson order 32, Walter Trump order 12, Chen Qinwu, Chen Mutian order 16 and 24, Chen Qinwu order 48 and 40.

Who will be the next first to construct a multimagic square?

If you have the following multimagic square which hasn't been published, welcome to mail this Magic square website for publication:

1) 13^th to 63^rd trimagic squares

2) Magic squares with 4 or higher power, but smaller order than the “Multimagic square records” above.
