Hasbro Gaming Rubik's Cube 3 x 3 Puzzle Game for Kids Ages 8 and Up

" That was the last thing my eight-year-old said to me. She wanted a Rubik's Cube, and I figured why not? I had one as a kid (and while I loved it, I was always frustrated by my inability to return it to its original state without assistance), so why not? When I combined it with another order, it was a great deal, so there you have it. br>br>History has a funny way of repeating itself. Now that my daughter is frustrated with her inability to fix the cube, she comes to me for help, and I look up a cheat sheet on how to fix it at night (I wish I had internet back when I was a kid haha). When I show her the fixed cube the next day, she is completely taken aback. An added benefit of that cheat sheet is that I'm gradually learning the moves out of my head, and soon I'll be able to perform them right in front of her, reclaiming my role as her hero:.

I used to be able to solve this puzzle in under two minutes when I was a kid in the 1980s. I'm no longer a child, and this isn't the 1980s - and now, no matter how hard I try, I can't get this thing to work (yep, You- I'm going to the tube). If you're old enough to remember the 1980s and the Rubik's Cube craze, you'll know that there are a few things you'll need to master this puzzle. Good hardware is the first step. First, the sides must slide smoothly and the structure must be sturdy. a shoddy imitation Offs had difficult-to-turn sides, and pieces would occasionally pop off when spinning them at high speeds (anyone else try loosening theirs with WD-40?). Because this cube is well-made, if you're having trouble solving it, it's not the cube's fault. it's you.

When the Rubix cube first came out in the 1980s, I used to enjoy playing with it. The colors on those early models were denoted by stickers. This newer Rubix cube features a colored plastic insert that is both more durable and attractive. When it was first used, the Rubix was also a lot stiffer. To speed up the turning process, I recall having to use graphite powder. This newer model has the same feel as a broken-in silky smooth model from the 1980s, but without the need to break in or add graphite powder. This model may come apart if you twist it too hard in an angle it can't handle, but it never did for me. I bought the model with the plain packaging, which came in a nice low-profile box with a flatter profile. A sturdy base for your new Rubix cube was also included. I liked it so much that I bought two more to give as presents. The price was also very reasonable, and I bought it directly from Amazon rather than from a third-party seller. This may make a difference in preventing the purchase of any fakes, if there are any out there as some people suspect; I feel safer buying from Amazon if the price is within a reasonable range, and I've been fortunate thus far. If you Google it, you'll find a slew of Rubix cube-solving websites. It's a lot of fun to figure out how to solve a layer or figure out how to swap pieces. For quality, style, price, and a lot of fun, I give this product 5 STARS!.

She was never given the opportunity to try it out. She twisted it once and it shattered into a million pieces. We had one of these a long time ago and loved it, so I'm not sure if this one is genuine. or was it just bad luck that I got a faulty one?.

It was good for a week before it broke. My daughter dropped it on a carpeted floor, and 1/3 of it disintegrated, making it impossible to reattach. Unless you plan on sitting on a pillow all day, a different brand would be preferable.

I didn't get the 7-day supply. As stated in the description, this is a step-by-step solution guide, so - 2 stars. The Rubik's cube and the stand are the only items in the box. br>br>Direct quote from the description at the top of the page - "INCLUDES A SOLUTION GUIDE FOR THE PUZZLE: A 7-piece Rubik's Cube puzzle is included in this Rubik's Cube puzzle game. It includes a comprehensive, step-by-step solution guide. step moves, and fascinating Rubik's Cube trivia "br>br>This is unquestionably an original Rubik's cube, identical to the one I had in the 1970s, but it's useless without the solution guide that was supposed to come with it. br>br>There are no colored stickers on these; the color is the same as the plastic, so you won't be able to cheat by peeling them off. Because they don't use colored stickers, I prefer them.

Today, I got my Rubik's Cube. It was packaged in a way that caused little annoyance. It was packaged in cardboard rather than plastic, which was a welcome change. I needed a blade to open it because it was still taped shut. The Rubik's Cube had good mechanical movement. The colored squares, on the other hand, were completely scratched. They're a kind of plastic in-between. lay. The surface resembling some plastic tupperware lids (rather than the colorful stickers I recall from the 1980s). Despite the fact that I took it out of the plastic myself, it appeared to have been used and slid around on the surfaces of tables and floors, scratching it up a little. br>The other day, a friend of mine bought a different brand from Toys'R'Us, and it made me nostalgic, so I bought it. However, I believe that the quality of the off-roading is better than the quality of the on-roading. The Toys'R'Us brand one was superior, and I believe it was also a few dollars less expensive.

I received this today in "frustration-free packaging," opened it, and it immediately fell apart. It's a colossal blunder; All of the tabs that hold the center piece together have broken. My wife continues to make fun of me. She had the best vantage point in the house. In the space of 5 seconds, I went from a happy kid to a grumpy toddler. While I'm waiting for a replacement, I'll give it three stars.
