Preparing for a Puzzle:
- Open the puzzle book and select a challenge.
- Each challenge will show a starting configuration of some puzzle pieces on the grid.
- Place the indicated pieces onto the game board as shown in the puzzle book.
- The goal is to fill the remaining empty spaces on the board using the rest of the Kanoodle pieces.
Operation (Gameplay)
Kanoodle offers two primary modes of play: 2D puzzles and 3D pyramid puzzles. Both modes utilize the same 12 unique puzzle pieces.
2D Puzzles:
For 2D challenges, you will fill a flat area on the game board. The puzzle book will provide the initial setup. Arrange the remaining pieces to complete the designated shape or area without any gaps or overlapping pieces. There is only one correct solution for each puzzle.

3D Puzzles:
3D challenges involve building a pyramid shape on the game board. The puzzle book will specify the base configuration. You must then stack the remaining pieces to form a complete pyramid, ensuring all pieces fit together without gaps and form a stable structure. These puzzles often require a different spatial approach than 2D challenges.

Huolto
To ensure the longevity of your Kanoodle game, follow these simple maintenance guidelines:
- Puhdistus: Wipe the puzzle pieces and case with a soft, dry cloth. For stubborn dirt, a slightly damp liinaa voidaan käyttää, minkä jälkeen pinta kuivataan välittömästi. Vältä hankaavia puhdistusaineita tai voimakkaita kemikaaleja.
- Varastointi: Always store all 12 puzzle pieces inside the carrying case when not in use. This prevents loss and protects the pieces from damage. Close the case securely.
- Käsittely: Handle the pieces and case with care to prevent breakage or deformation.
Vianetsintä
If you encounter any issues while playing Kanoodle, consider the following:
- Puzzle seems impossible: Double-check the initial setup against the puzzle book. Ensure all pieces are correctly oriented and placed as indicated. Remember that there is only one correct solution for each puzzle.
- Pieces don't fit: Verify that you are using all 12 pieces and that no pieces are missing. Ensure you are attempting to solve the puzzle on the correct side of the board (2D or 3D). Sometimes rotating pieces can help them fit.
- Lost a piece: The game requires all 12 pieces to complete most puzzles. If a piece is lost, contact Educational Insights customer support for assistance.
- Kotelo ei sulkeudu kunnolla: Ensure all puzzle pieces are correctly placed within the designated storage area inside the case. The pieces should lie flat and not obstruct the closing mechanism.
