Frequently asked questions

What are the rules?
Use all seven pieces — two large triangles, a medium one, two small ones, a square and a parallelogram — touching but not overlapping, to make the shape on the card.
Easy or hard?
Easy shows some of the lines inside the shape as a hint; hard shows only the silhouette, the classic puzzle.
Which age is it for?
From about five with the easy cards; the hard ones challenge adults too.
Can I flip the pieces?
Yes — the parallelogram sometimes has to be turned over.
Is anything uploaded?
No. The pages are made in your browser.
