Katamino: Basic
One Game, One Puzzle, 36,000 Combinations
How To Play
Pick 4 shapes, fill the space. Take an extra shape, fill the space. Take 6, 7, 8 and more. The sense of achievement felt when completing the easier, early stages of the puzzle, leads to determination to keeping trying the harder levels - like the best computer games.
With 450 different combination challenges, it's enough to keep the most boisterous of kids quiet in the back seat.
About The Game
Katamino is based on the twelve unique pentominoes that can be created by connecting five identical squares edge to edge. Their potential as a motivating teaching resource at
Key Stage 2
cannot be over-estimated. More information on the maths of pentominoes and their
uses in education
can be found at
the Katamino website
.
