What is Tangram Block Puzzle

Tangram Block Puzzle is a modern take on the classic dissection puzzle. Your goal is simple: arrange the given shapes to match the target outline, but the solutions require sharp thinking and a bit of creativity.

How to Play

Select a piece and drag it onto the board. Rotate and flip the shapes as needed to fit them together until the target silhouette is fully covered.

Tips for Playing

  • Start by placing the largest pieces to establish a solid foundation for the smaller ones.
  • Rotate a piece to see how its orientation affects the remaining space.
  • Sometimes flipping a piece over can reveal a fit you wouldn't have seen otherwise.
  • Look for symmetrical patterns in the target shape to guide your initial placements.
  • If you're stuck, step back and reassess the overall shape rather than focusing on individual pieces.
