It's mathmatical somehow... but since math is one of my worst subjects... *grumble*

LOL...there is a trick to it, but it has nothing to do with math. I'll help you a little bit--it's purely a visual puzzle. Also, the name of the game is significant. Good luck!

Click to expand...

Well, you do have to count, but that's all I'll tell you! Like I said though, the name of the puzzle is quite significant. Just LOOK at the dice....

It is indeed quite simple. I am though reluctant to post it because after you "know how" it becomes really boring. If you want the answer PM'd to you, say so.

Wow! I got the trend finally after about 15 tries!!! Ugh how simple it is I feel so dumb. What does this puzzle mean though in terms of people's different aproaches to situations as the site says? Can someone analyse?

I never did get it after umpteen attempts. My daughter figured it out and had to explain it to me.
