Lonpos 4D Puzzle

Take the Lonpos challenge! The player starts with a given problem consisting of a small number of
building blocks. The goal is to transform each given problem into a 2D or 3D pyramid with the remainder of the
building blocks available. The Lonpos handbooks contain 432 different problems. From one level to the next,
from 2D to 3D – everything in a practical and compact package. When you pur-
chase Lonpos, you will receive a puzzle with hundreds of different ways to play.
When you have solved a problem, then the next greater challenge comes while
using the same puzzle sets!
What makes Lonpos so unique and exciting in contrast to a conventional
1000-piece puzzle, for example?

Naturally, a conventional puzzle is a great challenge, but each piece has a fixed
and pre-designated place. However, with Lonpos – according to the calculations
of the inventor – you start with a single building block on the game board (page 55 in homework book no. 1),
there are a total of 19,887 possible combinations for solving the game!

It almost feels like you are hunting for treasure – you know, both adults and
children love these types of games!
On the way to becoming a Lonpos expert, the player develops further skills in
spatial thinking, geometry, trains the short-term memory – all of these are also
standard categories of an IQ test. For young players, motor skills are trained by
raising, lowering, turning over and rotating the small building blocks. Because
there are only 12 building blocks per game, Lonpos does not create such a
confusing mess as is the case, for example, with a 1000-piece puzzle.

Playing fun – not just alone!
Sharing makes for great fun again and again. Lonpos knows this. In each play set,
two puzzles are supplied. Thus, for example, you can compete with your children,
children with their friends, brothers, sisters or with their grandparents. Don’t blame
yourself if you lose - Lonpos is a game that is not just exclusively intended for
children.

Don’t just give it to your children, play along!

We recommend not just simply giving Lonpos to your children and letting them play it all by themselves.
Play along! Encourage them! Many problems are quite difficult – without your support, your children could
become frustrated and give up too soon. But if you are there for them, this fantastic game will also bring family
members closer together.
