‘Pisa-tower’ develops problem-solving skills because players must constantly analyse and evaluate how to place their blocks to keep the tower stable, especially when the dice determines which level they must use. They need to develop strategies, anticipate the consequences of their choices, and find (creative) solutions if the tower starts leaning.

In doing so, they need to consider aspects of stability and balance. Additionally, they must also think about how to make things more difficult for their opponent without getting themselves into trouble.
