ABSTRACT:
A puzzle (20) comprising an array of identical tiles (30), each of which is in the shape of an equilateral polygon and each of which is spaced parallel and spaced apart from adjacent sides of adjacent tiles to define a web of intersecting channels (40) that intesect each other at integer multiples of a web angle. A set of movable grout pieces is provided, each of which comprises at least one elongated segment equal in length to the side of the tiles and has a width approximately equal to the width of the channels (40). Preferably, the set of grout pieces consists of all possible different configurations of between one and the number of sides of the polygons of grout segments, with the segments of the multi-segment grout pieces joined only at their ends at integer multiples of the web angle.
