Discover a whole new way to challenge your mind with ThinkFun Block By Block. desertcart.com There are only seven pieces in this puzzle, so it should be easy. Right? Guess again! Sixty puzzle cards show 60 three-dimensional structures for players to replicate using the seven pieces. Each of the pieces, based on three or four connected cubes, is unique. One is an L shape, another a T, and they get more complicated from there. If a player is stumped and can't figure out how to build the Long Wall, the Snake, or the Bad Dog, there are helpful clues on the back of the cards. Players also can use the pieces to invent their own structures. Originally known as the Soma Cube, Block by Block is an excellent way to develop and refine spatial perception skills. Includes drawstring bag for storage. --Wendy Slotboom P.when('A').execute(function(A) { A.on('a:expander:toggle_description:toggle:collapse', function(data) { window.scroll(0, data.expander.$expander[0].offsetTop-100); }); }); From the Manufacturer Block by Block builds on players’ architectural skills as they combine seven puzzle pieces to construct up to sixty 3D structures depicted on various challenge cards. It features sixty mind challenge cards with hints and solutions, seven block pieces, and game-go storage bag. Review This updated version of the classic Soma Cube (seven pieces that represent all possible arrangements of three or four cubes other than in straight lines) helps develop spatial thinking as solvers mentally move and rotate the pieces to form the solid figures on 60 puzzle cards. On the back of each card, one hint shows where three of the shapes go, while another locates the remaining four. Players can choose their own levels of challenge. (Ruth B. Roufberg, Parent's Choice®, 1997) -- From Parents' Choice® See more Review: Puzzles are everywhere - All I can say is get ready to strain your brain. This is a very fun addictive game. You sit down look at the photo and try your best to recreate it.. sound simple enough, but it's far from simple. I found my self trying over and over and over and..... over. But the funny thing is that when people see you doing it they always think they can do it and once they sit down and try, they find their self stuck in the seat trying to figure out how come they can't recreate a simple looking photo. This is a fun & challenging, but be warned if you are some one who gets upset easy or mad when you can't figure something out then it's best to skip this game. But if you like a great challenge & love puzzles, then this is a game for you. You feel like a kid when you finally get a puzzle and when you cant get it and use the cheat sheet you ask your self how come I could not see that. I have to say this is a very fun & challenging game. Product (Does the item do what it says) = A Build (Material it is made out of) = A Assembly (Putting it together) = N/A Your Friendly Neighborhood Consumer BK_Shark Review: It was fun in the 60's, now its fun in my 60's - I had a similar toy in the 1960's called the SOMA cube and played with it for hours. It develops your spatial viewing of problems and a bit of logical thinking. This toy is the same thing as the SOMA cube only it comes with a deck of cards that contains 60 3-D puzzles to try. On the back of each card is a solution to the problem. In one or two cases, the 3-D picture on the front of the card doesn't show clearly what the BACK of the puzzle looks like, but this is minor. A wonderful toy that will keep kids (or adults) quiet for a long time. And it doesn't need batteries or electricity. A true thinking toy. ## Features - SKILL-BUILDING GAME: Combines seven puzzle pieces to construct up to sixty 3D structures - a perfect brain teaser that builds on your architectural skills - MENTAL CHALLENGE: Comes with sixty mind challenge cards, each with hints and solutions to stimulate your mind and keep you engaged - AGE-APPROPRIATE: Designed for ages 8 and up - an ideal activity for kids, teens, and adults alike - TRAVEL-FRIENDLY: Includes a game-go storage bag, making it an ideal travel companion for puzzle enthusiasts - EDUCATIONAL AND FUN: A perfect balance of fun and education - enhances spatial reasoning, logic, and problem-solving skills ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | ASIN | B00000IRTH | | Best Sellers Rank | #104,420 in Toys & Games ( See Top 100 in Toys & Games ) #254 in Toy Stacking Block Sets #703 in Brain Teaser Puzzles | | Customer Reviews | 4.5 4.5 out of 5 stars (379) | | Department | unisex-child | | Is Discontinued By Manufacturer | No | | Item Weight | 8.8 ounces | | Item model number | 44005931 | | Language | Polish | | Manufacturer | ThinkFun | | Manufacturer recommended age | 8 years and up | | Product Dimensions | 5.25 x 8 x 1.75 inches | | Release date | March 2, 2008 | ## Images ![ThinkFun Block by Block - Engaging 3D Puzzle Game | Enhances Architectural Skills | Mind Teaser for Ages 8 and Up | Travel-Friendly with Game-Go Storage Bag - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/71OsibC03KL.jpg) ## Questions & Answers **Q: is this the same as soma cube?** A: While the idea is similar to that of a Soma Cube, it is not the same. Block by Block offers 60 distinct shapes that the player must try to replicate with all of the pieces, rather than the one cube shape of a Soma Cube. While the Soma Cube has a number of solutions, each challenge in Block by Block has only one unique solution. **Q: What are the dimensions of the finished cube? How many inches per side?** A: each individual cube is 3/4 X 3/4 X 3/4. So once it's put together, it is 2.25" X 2.25" X 2.25" **Q: Would this product be sufficiently challenging for someone with a high IQ of 160 like me?** A: it is a gift ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Puzzles are everywhere *by S***K on March 4, 2011* All I can say is get ready to strain your brain.

A true thinking toy. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Great for Visualization! *by J***G on April 16, 2012* I bought this game for my students as a warm up to their day. The games are actually very difficult! I only allow my advanced students to use them because one card takes them at least 6 minutes to complete. I was looking for an intense game - so this doesn't really do the trick. But it's excellent for enhancing patience, logic and reasoning, and visualization. It can even generate some teamwork because some of the puzzles are so difficult. ## Frequently Bought Together - ThinkFun Block by Block - Engaging 3D Puzzle Game | Enhances Architectural Skills | Mind Teaser for Ages 8 and Up | Travel-Friendly with Game-Go Storage Bag - Think Fun Shape by Shape - Educational Insights Kanoodle 3D Brain Teaser Puzzle Game, Featuring 200 Challenges, Easter Basket Stuffers for Kids, Gift for Ages 7+ --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.nl/products/2112000-thinkfun-block-by-block-engaging-3d-puzzle-game-enhances-architectural](https://www.desertcart.nl/products/2112000-thinkfun-block-by-block-engaging-3d-puzzle-game-enhances-architectural) --- *Product available on Desertcart Netherlands* *Store origin: NL* *Last updated: 2026-05-18*
