Shape Fit: goal and players
Play Shape Fit online on JAWNA at jawna.app. Check the goal and supported player counts before inviting your group. Read the rules even if you know the game: familiar names can have different variants, and your usual house rules may differ from the selected version.
Supported table sizes: 2, 3 or 4 players. Choose a player count in the game settings. In partner variants, check seats and teams first. In individual formats, each player competes for their own result. The in-game How to play screen provides details. Agree on the variant before your first round together.
How to play: rules
- Fill the board exactly with the pieces: every square covered, no piece hanging over the edge, no two pieces on top of each other.
- Drag a piece onto the board and let go: it snaps to the squares. Drag a placed piece to move it, or off the board to take it back.
- Tap a piece to turn it a quarter turn. Flip mirrors the piece you last touched. Both work in the tray and on the board.
- Everyone gets the same board and the same pieces and plays at once. The first to fill the board wins.
- Every puzzle is made by cutting the board into the pieces, so it always has an answer, often more than one. Any exact fill wins.
- You only see how many pieces the others have down, never where.
- When the clock runs out (5, 10 or 15 minutes), players are ranked by pieces placed.

History & origins
Shape Fit uses pentominoes: pieces made from five connected squares, part of the mathematical polyomino tradition.
Solomon Golomb named and studied polyominoes in the 1950s, helping establish a rich family of tiling puzzles.
Jawna generates fitting challenges using these shapes, including rotations and reflections. The shared-board race is its digital format, distinct from the older mathematical study.
