What's Tangram Fury?
Tangram Fury is an exhilarating, fast-paced tabletop game that reimagines the ancient Chinese tangram puzzle as a thrilling competition. Unlike traditional tangram games, where players solve puzzles solo, this game pits up to four players against each other to race to recreate puzzle images shown on cards. The first player to correctly build five puzzles wins the game!
Imagine the intensity of competitive Tetris, but with physical tangram pieces you arrange by hand. It’s easy to learn, wildly fun, and keeps everyone on their toes.
Why It’s Special
Competitive Edge: Up to four players race to solve the same puzzle card, making every round a heart-pounding challenge.
Two Modes: Choose Fan Mode (with piece outlines) or Expert Mode (silhouette-only for a tougher challenge).
Educational Bonus: Kids (and adults!) sharpen spatial reasoning and problem-solving skills while having a blast—don’t tell them it’s learning!
Deluxe Version
The Deluxe edition includes eight puzzle sets, allowing up to eight players to compete at once. Alternatively, split into two groups of four for simultaneous games or create your own unique matchups for even more fun.
Why You’ll Love It
Tangram Fury transforms a classic puzzle into a lively, social showdown. Whether you’re battling friends or family, it’s a game that’s as engaging as it is entertaining.

How to Play Tangram Fury
Objective: Be the first to collect five puzzle cards by completing tangram puzzles faster than your opponents.
Gameplay:
- Roll the Die: Each player takes turns rolling a multi-colored die to determine which color puzzle card to pick.
- Build the Puzzle: Players race to recreate the tangram puzzle shown on the selected card using all seven tangram pieces. Pieces must not overlap and must fit within the puzzle’s shape.
- Win the Card: The first player to correctly complete the puzzle wins the card.
- Win the Game: The first player to collect five cards wins.
Game Modes:
- Fan Mode: Puzzle cards show borders outlining where each of the seven tangram pieces fits to form the shape.
- Expert Mode: More challenging. Puzzle cards show only the silhouette of the shape, and players must figure out how to arrange the seven pieces.
Rules:
- Every puzzle requires all seven tangram pieces.
- Pieces must lie flat and cannot overlap.
- Both modes are competitive, as players race against each other to finish first.
How is it played?
Players compete against each other to be the first to build tangram puzzles shown on cards.
• The first player done, wins the card.
• The first player to earn five cards, wins the game.
• Tangram Fury has two levels of play: “Fan” and “Expert.” The Fan level is easier, because the shapes on the cards have borders that show how each of the seven tangram pieces fit together to form the shape. The Expert level only shows a silhouette of the shape and players must figure out which pieces go where. Both modes can be intense, though, because you’re competing against other players.
• All seven pieces must be used to build each tangram and pieces may not overlap each other.
Tangram Fury: What’s New?
A Brief History of Tangrams
Tangrams, a puzzle of seven geometric pieces, arrived in the U.S. around 1815 when Captain Donnaldson brought them from China, where they were already considered ancient. Over centuries, tangrams have seen waves of popularity, captivating figures like Napoleon, who solved puzzles in exile, and Lewis Carroll, who crafted tangram versions of his literary characters. Edgar Allan Poe also dabbled with them. Despite their age, tangrams remain a timeless educational tool and toy.
What’s New with Tangram Fury?
Unlike traditional tangram games, which are solitary puzzles where a player recreates an image from a card, Tangram Fury introduces a thrilling competitive twist. Up to four players, each with their own set of tangram pieces, race to solve the same puzzle card first. This head-to-head challenge transforms the quiet, contemplative game into a fast-paced, adrenaline-fueled contest.
Why It’s Fun
The competitive edge brings fresh energy to this ancient game. The rush to outpace your opponents—whether friends or family—adds excitement and intensity, perfectly captured by the name Tangram Fury. Players can choose between two modes:
Fan Mode: Cards show the puzzle’s solution with piece outlines, making it easier.
Expert Mode: Cards display only the silhouette, increasing the challenge.
All players see the same card, ensuring a fair race, whether in Fan or Expert mode.
Solo Play Option
Prefer a calmer experience? You can play Tangram Fury solo, solving puzzles at your own pace. This quieter approach is perfect for relaxed puzzling or educational use, though it lacks the “fury” of the competitive game.
Why It Stands Out
Tangram Fury reinvents a classic by adding the thrill of competition. It’s not just about solving puzzles—it’s about being the fastest. Whether you’re racing to beat your buddies or enjoying a solo challenge, this game brings new life to an ancient puzzle.
