  • easy – for those who are not very confident in solving logic puzzles;
  • medium – for those who are beyond beginners, but not yet experts;
  • difficult – for those who want to challenge themselves with “brain-teasers”.

The sticker
Pay close attention to the stickers! If placed in the right order, they will allow you to find a code to crack to reveal the mysterious phrase!

Engaging challenges with maths and logic


Matching, differences, hidden expressions, cancellations, swapping places, boxes to fill in, sudoku... and much more!

THE SERIES

Enigmatic-mind is a series designed to entertain and practice deductive and reasoning skills in math and logic. Composed of three volumes and particularly suitable for lower secondary school students, it offers fun and exciting logic challenges that involve numerical, calculation and "decoding" skills of written texts.

The challenges, structured on three levels of difficulty, encourage players to create their own strategies, making use of experience gained, intuition, deduction, and ingenuity.

They are in random order.  At the bottom of each sheet, you will find the numerical reference to the next challenge to be completed (on the same level as the previous one), in addition to the number of the sticker to be stuck into the puzzle grid corresponding to the level of the completed challenge.

Only by following the order of the challenges and correctly completing the puzzle grid, will it be possible to decipher a code and find a mysterious sentence!
