Time Magazine's "Best Invention of 2023" has spawned a science puzzle Kickstarter.
Last March, a breakthrough discovery in mathematics was announced: the aperiodic monotile dubbed the Hat. This single "einstein shape" can cover an entire plane to infinity without any repeating pattern. The elusive design was sought for fifty years … many doubted it could even exist!
Now InFUNity Tiles lets you hold this improbable polygon in your very own hands.
The pieces connect endlessly — but they can also misconnect in "wrong" ways that lead to gaps that can't be filled. It's more challenging than it looks!
A math degree isn't needed to enjoy playing with these amazing "smart tiles," discovering the genius of their unique shape.
Solo or with friends of any age, finding the right fit is fun and engaging!
