TRIOVISION MASTER
Look and move a piece FOR A FORMATION
Formation forming is a fundamental ability as well as the recognition of positions and ways to find a solution. Triovision has used this principle for a game and it is now used again in Triovision Master, which also trains anticipatory planning and constructing as a prerequisite for planned actions, logical-abstract thinking and the solving of mathematical problems.
Nine playing pieces in three colors and three shapes - each shape is present in each of the three colors - are placed randomly on the board. Ten cards are displayed open-faced, the rest is face-down draw pile, and the back of the top card of this draw pile always shows one of the playing pieces.
All play at the same time and look at the open-faced cards and try to make up one of the formations pictured on those cards. Shapes without color represent a piece of this shape in any color, color spots any piece in this color. To arrange for a formation you can only move the piece that is pictured on the top card of the draw pile. If you see a solution stops the search, points to the card and relocates the piece. When the solution is correct you receive the card and a new one is laid out from the stack. Mirror-image solutions are not correct solutions. If you are first to own 12 cards you win.
Versions suggest playing all cards and you will win with most cards; or you can form several draw piles and move any of the pieces visible on the top; in the solo version you simply play against time.
Triovision is a well-made sequel to Triovision; abstract thinking resulting in correct moves come in felicitous combination and train spatial thinking.
