How do you play IQ Fit?

Choose a challenge and setup the board by placing the specified starting pieces. You'll solve the puzzle by placing the remaining pieces into the board.

In this puzzle the pieces have balls sticking out in three directions. To place a piece some of the protruding balls need to fit into the grid leaving a 2D, flat solution. To add to the fun, the puzzle pieces have 4 balls visible when seen from one angle and 5 balls from another.

One of the protruding sides of each puzzle piece has 1 ball, the other side has 2 balls. So depending on how you orientate a puzzle piece, you get more or less balls.

When solved, all puzzle pieces will fit on the game board without any holes uncovered or knobs sticking out.

This puzzle is self checking.
