Three-dimensional puzzle game and associated method of playing the same

A timed, three-dimensional puzzle game that is fun and cooperatively involves excitement, competition, strategy, skill, and luck, comprising the steps of:

• providing a plurality of three-dimensional puzzle pieces that are originally oriented in a random pattern;
• providing a solution template that collectively corresponds to a surface of each one of the plurality of three-dimensional puzzle pieces;
• providing a container that is adapted for containing, shaking, and rolling the plurality of three-dimensional puzzle pieces;
• shaking and rolling the plurality of three-dimensional puzzle pieces onto a surface from the container;
• isolating all three-dimensional puzzle pieces that have a surface that correspond to the solution template;
• collecting all three-dimensional puzzle pieces that do not have a surface that corresponds to the solution template;
• placing all of the remaining three-dimensional puzzle pieces that do not have a surface that corresponds to the solution template into the container;
• repeating the steps of shaking, rolling, isolating, collecting, and placing until all of the three-dimensional puzzle pieces have a surface that corresponds to the solution template;
• arranging all of the three-dimensional puzzle pieces to conform with the solution template to, in turn, solve the puzzle;
• and
• timing the puzzle game from the initial roll to solving the puzzle.
