Game Rules

Step 1

Select a challenge. Place the puzzle pieces in the grid of the beanstalk by inserting them on the topside and letting them drop down one-by-one.

Step 2

When a piece drops down it will tilt a number of times. You need to plan the orientation on the topside to make sure it shows the correct artwork when it lands in place.

Step 3

You have found the solution when the image on the puzzle pieces on the frontside matches the image of the challenge.

  • Awesome game. The challenges are fun. You had to do some problem solving which made the game fun, I know my students would love this game. It came with a picture book for the kids that may not know the story of Jack and the Beanstalk.

  • This game is more challenging than it looks! Try to match the picture, but the “puzzle pieces” flip as you put them into place, adding an extra element of planning.

  • This is a challenging 3D puzzle game for preschoolers that stimulates cognitive skills: planning, visual perception, problem solving, hand-eye coordination, and spatial insight. Different pictures on both sides makes it more challenging. I like that the challenges range from easy to expert. The storybook would be better if there was words telling the story.

  • Such a fun brain teaser game! Our kiddos loved problem solving to try and help Jack up the bean stock. Definitely a fun game to play over and over again!

  • This game is pretty genius. Your child has to think ahead of how the puzzle piece will land instead of just placing it on there in the right position. The ability to think ahead, for a child, is a good skill to have. I like the fact that there are many levels that get progressively more difficult. This game is a one player game, and I think that is a great idea. It gives the child some quiet time to sit and figure out this puzzle. It kept one of my sons busy for almost two hours, and that's unheard of.

  • People need to have good logic to play this game like pro. All of us needed to think twice and TRY TWICE in order to finish the task. The rule is super simple, but it was not easy to complete it. We all knew which block is the right one for that spot but spent so much time to figure out which way is the right way to drop it down. It was really fun and challenging to play this, and the sound of block dropping down is very distress.

  • Bring fairytales to life In the classroom or in your home. Everyone remembers the story of Jack and the beanstalk, now you can play! It is very much like a cross between connect four, kerplunk and yet something totally new!

  • This game is so much fun to play! My students just absolute loved it! The challenges vary in level which is great for the varied level of students i work with. This is another great game where students can work in small groups to try and figure out the challenge on their own or practice asking for help if they need it, advocating for help at this age is such an important skill and this game helps build that skill! I'm always impressed with these games!

  • This game is super innovative! My 5 year old loves puzzle games but this one is unique! Because the pieces rotate on the structure, you really have to think through each move. He has taken this out day after day to play with it. I love that he can do it by himself, He also enjoyed the picture book that it comes with. He has created different versions of the story to tell me.
