"Block by Block" is a three-dimensional spatial puzzle game published by ThinkFun in 1996. The game challenges players to combine exactly seven distinct plastic blocks to construct specific structures depicted on a series of challenge cards. The pieces are based on the Soma cube, requiring spatial reasoning to figure out how they interlock in three dimensions. This single-player logic puzzle is designed for both children and adults who want to develop their visual perception and problem-solving skills.
