Designed by Reiner Knizia, it uses hexagonal tiles placed on a hexagonal grid, with four difficulty levels from green (easy) to red (expert). It's for solo players ages 8 and up, and the entire game stores neatly inside the plastic case — no setup required.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eHow Do the 200 Challenges Work?\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eYou get 25 double-sided cards, each with four challenges. Early ones (green level) use 10 tiles; later cards introduce five additional blue-symbol tiles, making the puzzles more complex. Some spaces have question marks — you have to figure out the correct color yourself. Solutions for every challenge are printed in the rulebook, and the free Kosmos Helper App offers extra support.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eWhat’s Inside the Case?\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe compact plastic case holds everything: a pull-out drawer with 15 tiles, an upper tray for the 25 cards, and the rulebook at the bottom. There’s no mess, no loose parts. You can open it and play anywhere — on a plane, at a cafe, or during a commute.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ctable\u003e\n  \u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eContents\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e1 plastic case, 25 cards, 15 plastic tiles, 1 rulebook with solutions\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n  \u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePlayers\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e1 (head-to-head with a second copy)\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n  \u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eAges\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e8 and up\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n  \u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eChallenges\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e200 (4 difficulty levels)\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n  \u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eTiles per challenge\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e10 or 15\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/table\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eCan You Play with a Friend?\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis version is designed for solo play, but if you buy a second copy, you can race head-to-head against another player.
