One set of puzzle pieces includes fourteen total pieces with eleven of the pieces having distinct outlines corresponding to the eleven different ways the six faces of a unit cube can be unfolded while remaining connected together and then flattened. The two-dimensional outlines of the other three pieces can be arranged to form the outlines of the eleven puzzle pieces and can be arranged to form a unit cube. In some embodiments, the puzzle bases have exterior peripheries that are three-dimensional and which can be partially or fully covered by the puzzle pieces as a puzzle solution. In other embodiments, the puzzle bases indicate a two-dimensional pattern which the puzzle pieces can be arranged to cover as a puzzle solution.
