logicus Coinx

Let’s place it!

Coinx are friendly nature monsters; they represent earth, wind, rain, snow, mountains and oceans and invite players on a tour through the four seasons. Nine colored playing pieces comprise two red, two yellow, two blue and two green L-shaped pieces, made up from four squares; each piece has a hole that sits in a different part of the L for each color. The ninth piece is purple and is made up also from four squares, forming two staggered rectangles, with a hole in each rectangle. 19 double-sided task sheets show 38 puzzles with varying arrangements of Coinx positions on scenes set in spring, summer, autumn and winter landscapes.

The task is always to place all nine pieces on the task card. Coinx characters must not be covered, pieces cannot exceed the task sheet and a Coinx must always be visible through a hole in a piece of the Coinx’ color. For grey Coinx you must find the suitable color yourself. All in all, there are 22 different Coinx, and up to ten are positioned in a task.

Tasks come in increasing levels of difficulty; task #1 und #2 are training tasks showing the colored pieces in correct positions to make all Coinx visible through the holes in the pieces of the correct color.

Components and minimum age let one suppose a game for children, and Coinx is absolutely suitable for children. But adults, too, will find the game a nice introduction to the genre of arrangement/position games, offering attractive and challenging fun in thinking; tasks #37 and #38 show only grey Coinx for which you must find holes to peep through. Colorful, cheerful brain teasers for all the family!
