Multi-polyhedral puzzles characterized by four tetrahedra and one octahedron which are divided into different sets of multiple polyhedron blocks having various configurations, each block having multiple faces and each face being one of several colors. In a preferred embodiment the polyhedron blocks of each octahedron or tetrahedron set are fitted together in a corresponding transparent case to form the octahedron or tetrahedron, according to one of three levels of difficulty. At the most advanced level of difficulty in assembling each octahedron and tetrahedron, the polyhedron blocks of each set are fitted together such that abutting faces of adjacent polyhedron blocks match in color and a prescribed color pattern is formed on the respective faces of the assembled octahedron or tetrahedron. At an intermediate level of difficulty, the polyhedron blocks are fitted together to form the prescribed color pattern on the faces of the assembled octahedron or tetrahedron without regard to matching colors of abutting polyhedron block faces. At an elementary level of difficulty, the polyhedron blocks are fitted together to form the corresponding octahedron or tetrahedron without regard to matching colors of abutting polyhedron block faces or formation of the prescribed color pattern on the faces of the assembled octahedron or tetrahedron. The assembled tetrahedra can be arranged on respective faces of the assembled octahedron to form a large tetrahedron, for packaging or storage purposes.
