Description

 

The latest puzzle from the inventor of the world reknowned Rubik's Cube, the Rubik's 360 Puzzle is pretty simple on face value. Just twist and turn the spheres to drop each ball into its niche? See, easy right? Well don't be fooled, this could well be the hardest Rubik's puzzle yet!

The Rubik's 360 is a clear plastic sphere with six coloured domes positioned around the circumference. Inside the outer sphere is another transparent sphere, inside this, a third sphere, containing 6 small coloured balls, with a hole in it, through which the small balls have to pass. The object is to manipulate the Rubik's 360, so that the coloured balls pass through both inner spheres to the matching coloured dome on the outer sphere - then each one is locked into place. Like the Cube, there is a knack to solving the Rubik's 360 - but it can take any number of tries - and a lot of perseverance - to get there!

Customer rating: 4 out of 5 stars This is no Rubik's Cube but it's still really good.

I got this product the other day and quickly got to work trying to solve it. You don't have to learn loads of algorithms for the 360 compared to the standard Rubik's Cube. It is generally time consuming (which makes it good) It's great how you slowly learn how all the parts move and pick up the different tricks needed to complete this. I managed to solve it pretty quickly compared to Rubik's Cube but this is still a pretty good puzzle. It can be frustrating at times but this just adds to your joy when you finally manage to do something. Certainly worth a try for any puzzle fan.

This is one of the best toys I have got in a while. Sure it looks weird, but don't be put off - this will guarantee you ages of fun. It's much easier than the real Rubiks Cube, but it gets harder as you go. It took me around 3 hours to complete on the day I bought it, but there is a new way of doing it each time, so you never get bored of it! If you are even considering it, go for it! You won't regret it, and that's a promise!

Customer rating: 3 out of 5 stars good but pretty easy

After hearing about this sphere, I thought I would give it a go. It took about an hour and a half to get the principles of how to complete it and to complete it. It was a lot easier than learning how to solve the cube. I would say if you can solve standard puzzles (such as hard su-doku), you'll easily be able to solve this.
