Further, the puzzle game comprises a holder (20) having a recess (23) for receiving the pentomino pieces (30), the recess (23) having a rectangular circumference (24). The marks (31) are provided for the purpose of recording of the configuration of the puzzle pieces (30) in the recess (23). Different pentomino pieces (30) are provided with different marks (31). Further, the marks (31) on one pentomino piece (30) have mutually different orientations which correspond to possible orientation of the pentomino piece (30) with respect to the circumference (24) of the recess (23).
