The puzzles we present here use the pieces as building blocks only, and present many versatile challenges, from all types of recreational mathematics fields.

From the moment we changed the rules (using the seven pieces to decipher silhouettes) we felt that the sky is the limit! There is something magical and enchanting in those seven pieces that enabled us to find many puzzles and challenges! Almost all the puzzles presented are new, unique and original.
