They might be compared to Tangrams which are a 2D puzzle while Soma is a 3D puzzle. Soma cubes can be used by all ages as long as they are old enough to appreciate a good puzzle and not eat or choke on the pieces. I&#8217;ve built my own puzzle pieces by gluing together 27 dice but there are versions you can purchase on Amazon (<a href=\"http:\/\/www.amazon.com\/exec\/obidos\/ASIN\/B005K2WBKK\/boingboing\">this Soma cube<\/a> ($14) has a deck of 50 cards with shape challenges). <a href=\" https:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Soma_cube\">Wikipedia<\/a> has a good description of the game pieces including pictures of the pieces and a few shapes that can be made of them. Search the web for &#8216;Soma Figures&#8217; and &#8216;Soma Solutions&#8217; to find shapes to build with your Soma cubes.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/tkdev.kk.org\/cooltools\/files\/2018\/07\/41yuUtCKKVL.jpg\"><\/p>\n<div class='ctx-module-container ctx_default_placement ctx-clearfix'><\/div><span class=\"ctx-article-root\"><!-- --><\/span>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>3D puzzle<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":76,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_mi_skip_tracking":false},"categories":[44],"tags":[],"acf":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/tkdev.kk.org\/cooltools\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/31905"}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/tkdev.kk.org\/cooltools\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/tkdev.kk.org\/cooltools\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/tkdev.kk.org\/cooltools\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/76"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/tkdev.kk.org\/cooltools\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=31905"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/tkdev.kk.org\/cooltools\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/31905\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":31908,"href":"https:\/\/tkdev.kk.org\/cooltools\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/31905\/revisions\/31908"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/tkdev.kk.org\/cooltools\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=31905"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/tkdev.kk.org\/cooltools\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=31905"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/tkdev.kk.org\/cooltools\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=31905"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
