The classic Chinese puzzle, Tangram, now comes in a compact metal tin — perfect for travel, quiet playtime or quick brain-boosting challenges. With over 800 patterns to recreate, this timeless game offers endless opportunities for creativity and logical thinking.
Originating in China and known as the “Shaft of Wisdom,” Tangram became widely popular in Europe in the 19th century and remains a favorite worldwide. The set consists of seven wooden pieces — a square, a parallelogram and five triangles — that can be arranged into thousands of distinct shapes.
The rules are simple:
• All seven pieces must always be used.
• Pieces cannot overlap and must fit together precisely.
• A puzzle is solved only when the silhouette is reproduced accurately.
Despite its simplicity, a tiny shift in one piece can change the entire outcome. Tangram encourages patience, concentration and problem-solving, making it a perfect educational puzzle for all ages. And if you get stuck, a booklet with solutions is included — though discovering the answer on your own is where the real joy lies.
