THE BASIC OBJECT OF THE PUZZLE

To make a series of varying size rectangles ['PENTA'] using four or more pentominoes on the adjustable board. The bigger the PENTA the harder it gets.

How to play

Position the divider vertically in the slot '4' on the board to make a 4x5 rectangle or PENTA. Choose 4 pentominoes using the 'Grand Chelem' list and fit them into the PENTA. Now, move the divider up one notch to '5' and take the next pentomino to try to make PENTA 5. How far can you get?

Other possibilities

Try the further combinations of the 'Super Chelem' or 'Challenge' lists. Make numerous 2D and 3D animals or geometric shapes.

The game for 2, 3 or 4 players

Each player takes a pentomino and places it on the chessboard. The winner is the last player to be able to place a piece. It looks simple but is remarkably engrossing! Four players can play as partners giving an added tactical twist. Can you block your opponents while leaving a move for your partner?
