QUINTILLIONS^®

8 times on Games 100 list.
Games' "Golden Oldies" list, 1995.

This is our No. 1 game, and the one that launched the company. The 12 lasercut, hand-polished maple quint blocks, 13/16" unit cube size, are all the different shapes 5 cubes can make when joined in a flat plane ("solid pentominoes"). Each piece has its own name. Illustrated booklet of 80 pages has the most comprehensive collection of original activities for the set ever published, in 2-D (for example, symmetrical pairs and an alphabet) and 3-D, including 5 competitive games: Quintillions®, Quintominoes^TM, Squint®, Blockout®, and Quint-Mate®. The pieces feel very good to the touch. They could become a lifetime avocation. For 1 to 4 players, ages 6 to adult. $59

SUPER QUINTILLIONS^®

These are the expansion set to Quintillions: an additional 18 non-flat 5-cube pieces ("pentacubes"). We've given each superquint a name so they're easy to recognize. They are meticulously handcrafted of solid hardwood to fit finely in every combination. Even more puzzles, larger game versions become possible. Booklet includes puzzles and games for just the 18 and for all 30 pieces. Recommended for 1 to 6 players, ages 10 to adult, although younger players can have a ball with them, too. Please don't order these unless you also have the basic Quintillions. $116

This is undeniably our finest product. The combined Quint/Superquint set is handcrafted and lasercut from a single piece of beautiful maple for an incomparable matched-grain look.

An extraordinary pleasure to own or to receive, the deluxe combo is frequently given as graduation gift, wedding present or executive award. The box includes a leather-like vinyl game mat and both booklets. For 1 to 6 players, ages 12 to adult. $225

P.S.: If you already own the two sets separately,
you can order just the case alone, for only $50.

POCKET PENTOMINOES

People had been asking us for years for a small pocket edition of our famous pentominoes sets. In 2004 there appeared a delightful children's mystery book, Chasing Vermeer, by Blue Balliett, that features little pentominoes the young hero always carries with him. Our laser-cut acrylic pocket set is scaled to 1/2" unit squares (the same size as Poly-5 and our Pentomino necklace) and comes in a little drawstring pouch. Its booklet includes some of the most interesting puzzles to play with pentominoes, drawn from 25 years of research as seen in our Quintillions and Poly-5 sets. For age 6 to adult, 1 or 2 players.
