Playform is an unusual building set by Quercetti. All its pieces are transparent tiles that connect with they edges.
Unlike many other building tile sets, Quercetti Playform has no magnets. Instead, its pieces have rows of pins on their edges. These pins can interlock together at different angles, keeping the pieces together. Sadly, only two of four sides of the each piece has pins. Other two sides are smooth and can’t form any connections, which limits building possibilities of the set.
However, you can still build many different and unexpected shapes from this set. The pieces have similar shape – they all are rectangular and have the pin on opposite sides. But they can have differen width, and many pieces can connect to each other in the same point at once. Because of this, the number of possible crafts is almost unlimited. All pieces are translucent, but they have different colors, so any craft from this set looks beautiful.
As of now, there is only one Playform set with 60 pieces. Since they have no magnets, the pieces are safer for children than the most building tiles, and they are too big to swallow them. However, this set may be too abstract for the smaller kids, so the recommended age is 5+.
