Target Shape Level 3 of 20 • 3 blocks

Uncheck to keep the target visible for the whole round.

Copy the shape exactly as it appears.

Instructions

  1. Pick a starting level to decide how many blocks your first target will have.
  2. Study the target card. After your first click it shrinks, but you can tap it anytime for a quick peek.
  3. Click cells on the 8×8 grid to toggle them on or off until your pattern matches the goal.
  4. Flip on Mirror or Rotation mode when you want an extra brain twist.
  5. When you match the target, the board clears automatically. Use Clear Grid to retry or New Shape to skip ahead.

Learning Notes

Copying shapes builds serious spatial power.

  • The disappearing target nudges you to hold designs in your head like a memory game.
  • Mirror and rotation switches help you imagine flips and quarter turns.
  • Level-ups add blocks slowly so confidence stays high while puzzles grow wild.

Describe each shape using words like “elbow,” “T,” or “staircase,” then see if your friend can draw it from your description.
