How to play Tangram, the daily shape puzzle
Tangram is the classic puzzle of seven shapes: five triangles, a square and a parallelogram. Fit all seven into the silhouette without gaps or overlaps.
Pick a piece, then tap where it goes, or drag it. Rotate pieces in 45° steps and flip the parallelogram. Any arrangement that fills the shape counts.
A new board goes live at midnight in your time zone, easy at the start of the week and hardest on Sunday.
Strategy tips
- Place the big triangles first. The two large triangles fill half the area. Find where they fit and the rest follows.
- Look for sharp corners. A 45° point in the silhouette almost always holds a triangle tip.
- Keep the square for last. The square and the small triangles are the easiest pieces to fit into the gaps that remain.
- Use a hint. Hint shows the dashed outline of the selected piece in the silhouette.
