The trick

One square leaned at 60 degrees from the low back wall makes the whole sloping roof, and a triangle in each side closes the gap and grabs the roof edge so it holds.

What you will need

  • 5 square tiles
  • 2 triangle tiles

Step by step

  1. 1. Lay the floor

    Put one square flat on the ground.

  2. 2. Stand three walls

    Stand a wall up the back and one on each side, and leave the front open to walk in.

  3. 3. Lean the sloping roof

    Rest one square against the top of the back wall so it slopes up over the shelter.

  4. 4. Close the two sides

    Drop a triangle into each side under the slope. It sits flush and grabs the roof edge.
