Flat Soma – Expert Packing Puzzle

Flat Soma is a challenging packing puzzle designed by Oskar van Deventer and produced by Team JB Hobbies. Inspired by a concept from Dr. Volker Latussek, this puzzle takes the familiar Soma Cube pieces and forces them into a remarkably constrained flat space.

The objective is to fit all of the Soma pieces into the frame, creating a compact arrangement that occupies significantly less volume than a traditional Soma Cube. While the classic Soma challenge focuses on building a cube, Flat Soma asks you to rethink how the pieces interact when space is severely restricted.

In addition to the primary packing challenge, the puzzle includes a secondary "transport" configuration where several pieces remain partially exposed. Transitioning between configurations introduces an extra layer of difficulty and provides an additional challenge for experienced solvers.

With its striking rainbow-colored pieces and compact design, Flat Soma is both an eye-catching display piece and a formidable spatial reasoning challenge.
