What it is

Olly shows a shape made of cubes. Which option is the very same shape, only turned around? Mirror images look close but can never be turned to match. In rotate-to-match puzzles, turn a shape a quarter turn at a time with buttons, keys or by dragging until it matches Olly's.

What children learn

Mental rotation and the difference between rotating and reflecting a 3D object: core spatial skills linked to geometry, engineering and science.

What it teaches

  • 3D shapes and views
  • Spatial reasoning

How to play

Tap a shape to choose it. To turn a shape, use the turn buttons or drag it; each turn is a quarter turn. Keyboard: arrow keys turn the view, + and − zoom, R resets; on a rotate puzzle, X, Y and Z (Shift for the other way) turn the shape. A flat drawing view works without 3D graphics.

Plays with: Touch Mouse Keyboard Pen
