The Puzzle’s Essential Kit

The tray type of every tray of The Puzzle is matched by the corresponding rune. In the product description you can find indications on which kind of pieces can fit and, if you have any doubt, you can also check the technical specs which report all exact internal slot dimensions.

The Puzzle is thought to be a modular system. Each single tray is multiple in dimension of another. The “small” tray is width per length 1×1; “medium” is 1×2; “large” is 2×2 and “long” is 1×4. So, for example, two “small” trays match exactly one “medium” tray and 2 “medium” trays match a “large”, or “long” tray, depending on how you’ll put them side by side.

Every tray has small legs which are designed to be put on a surface, or on top of another tray. Trays have carved top lateral sides to accommodate the legs of upper trays. It is not necessary to have identical trays to be stacked: on top of a “long” tray you can put 4 “small”, or 2 “medium”, trays, legs will match with upper carvings anyway.

We designed trays around a “universal box compatibility” concept. In a A4 game box (eg Puerto Rico, Orleans, Lorenzo il Magnifico…), which is a small-mid surface box, you can put 4 “large” trays side by side, leaving space on top for a game board and manuals. You can stack the trays into higher boxes too.

Of course! Acrylic lids are sold separately: to find out which lid is the one for your tray, check the dimension on the product title : “small” trays have “small” lids, and so on.

Of course they can! Check the technical specs to find out which card size fits the tray, for mentioned card size sleeved fit is guaranteed. For further information visit our FAQ page.
