Editorial Review:

The Soma cube is a solid dissection puzzle invented by Piet Hein in 1936 during a lecture on quantum mechanics conducted by Werner Heisenberg. Seven pieces made out of unit cubes must be assembled into a 3x3x3 cube. The pieces can also be used to make a variety of other interesting 3D shapes and are given with the instructions. There are 240 distinct solutions of the Soma-cube puzzle. Dimensions: 2 3/4" x 2 3/4" x 2 3/4"

Customer Reviews:

A classic - great brain teaser for young and old alike!

This is a wood version [very nicely made] of the classic soma cube. Great brain teaser for young and old alike...stay mentally alert by exercising the mind. Makes a great conversation piece - just set it down on a table and people can't keep their hands off of it! Best of all, age doesn't really matter - kids and adults are equally likely to solve it or delight in the agony of defeat. Fun, well made, perfect exercise to keep the mind strong.
