Intelligent, cosmic, irresistible

In the large temple of Benares, there were 60-4 golden disks, of different sizes, mounted on three diamond needles. At the creation of the world the god Brahma placed all the disks on the first needle, in order of size, the largest on the bottom. The task of the priests consisted in moving the disks, one at a time, from one needle to another, never placing a disk on a smaller one. Displacing all the disks, leaving the tower on the last needle, would signify the end of the world.

With disks of two colors and a triangular disposition of the pegs, this game allows every one to develop: observation, attention, concentration, perseverance, and even some manual dexterity.
