Original
The original set is at Thingiverse https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:4387531
It includes an excellent pamphlet giving some background and listing 40 different puzzles of 6 blocks. It includes a tray for storing the puzzles in.
This Variation
The original offers 3 sets having different notch widths. I found even the tightest set to be rather loose so I offset the notch faces by 0.07mm.
As printed they are a bit tight. Put them in a plastic bag with some talcum powder & shake them up. It makes the PLA non-sticky & the blocks slide together nicely.
Background
A very good site discussing puzzles http://www.robspuzzlepage.com/interlocking.htm#notchable
It was that site that led me to the Thingiverse set.
There is another set there of 9 additional blocks.
There are some at Printables.
