Treasury of Classic and Modern Puzzles
Everyone knows a few puzzles, like the Rubik's Cube or the "Fifteen"
sliding block puzzle. However, until now only a few people knew that
there are hundreds of extremely clever simple puzzles, that you don't
need to buy anything to play.
Here in our Puzzle Playground, we've assembled and organized a
collection of the best of these for your puzzling enjoyment. These
classic and modern, hands-on puzzles that use coins or matches or
stuff you can find or print out free from our site.
Puzzle Playground is divided into four big sections:
-
Manipulative Puzzles - Puzzles with simple props like
coins, matches, cards, other simple things for your puzzling
enjoyment.
-
Non-Manipulative Puzzles - Challenges and brainteasers
to stimulate your visual perception and train your math and
logical skills.
-
Illusions, Tricks, Toys - Clever and funny illusions,
toys and tricks which are simple enough to prepare for your
family and friends.
-
Interactive Puzzles - Intriguing puzzles which you can
play directly online - no need to make any additional
preparations.
To participate, simply scroll down our list until you find a puzzle
that intrigues you. Then simply click it to open and read all about
it. If you like it, print it out and it's yours. |
