Matchpoint - Bernhard Wiezorke - IPP Exchange 1994



This is a really nice example of a matching edge type puzzle with seemingly boundless possibilities.  ‘Bernhard stated that this is the first and only matching-puzzle where sides and corners must match.’


Kate Jones has a description as well as other puzzles like this on her site at Kadon:




“Bernhard Wiezorke of Germany designed a charming matching puzzle he calls Matchpoint, which combines both corner matching and side matching, with 20 well-made blue cardboard squares with half-circles and quarter-circles in white and yellow. Getting them into a 4x5 rectangle is no mean feat. It does not appear to be in production beyond the sets he made for an International Puzzle Party in 1994.”
