The Hua Rong Dao (alternatively named Hua Rong Path, Chinese name: 華容道) is a traditional Chinese puzzle game that is based upon the legendary Battle of Red Cliffs, which took place during the East Han Dynasty (208AD). In order to win this sliding block puzzle game, the player must move the blocks to create a path through which the largest block (named CaoCao) can travel and ultimately escape through the cut-out in the bottom of the wooden puzzle frame. This fun game is great for classrooms or to keep kids busy when traveling in a car or sitting in a restaurant.

华容道是中国古典益智玩具的“四大经典”之一，它是一个由经典的故事发展而成的益智玩具。故事源于三国时期著名的“曹操败走华容道”的故事：三国赤壁大战时，诸葛亮巧用火攻之计大败曹军，且他料到曹操一旦失败必定会从华容道逃走，就派关羽等蜀将守在华容道，果然将曹操逮个正着。但关羽终念及曹操的旧恩情，放了他一条生路，藉此曹操才得以保全性命.华容道这一古老的智力游戏，就取意于这段故事。由于该游戏变化多端，精深莫测，具有百玩不厌等特点。
游戏方法：
棋子在棋盘上移动一步，有三种棋局“横刀立马/层层设防/插翅难逃”棋子的规则是:只准利用两个空平面移动，不许把棋子重叠，也不许跨过任何棋子.要想法用最少的步数把曹操移到出口.只许曹操出去别的棋子不许出去.华容道是一种中国古代的智力游戏玩具，在一个框中，有10个旗子，包括一个曹操，五虎上将，四个小卒，要求在各个棋子不重叠的情况下进行移动，最后将曹操从棋盘上方移动到下边中央为成功。
