@gooja9966

Not really, that rule really only applies if you know how to solve up to a 7x7. For cubes larger than 3x3 you need to know edge pairing and commutators. The 4x4 also has some annoying paritys that you would need to learn algorithms for as well.

Thank u u got me in to cubing and I luv ur videos alright take care

I think at first glance the redi cube looks kinda hard but than you realize its really similar to an intuitive pyraminx

Very interesting puzzle and indeed something I've noticed as well. Noncubers often overestimate puzzles. I've got a lot of puzzles that are easier to solve than the regular 3x3 but look harder. For instance I have a Square-1 on my desk that next to a Moyu wheel of time. Recently, somebody saw me using the wheel of time and thought that it was extremely challenging (people seem to connect number of pieces with difficulty). A Square-1 doesn't look that intimidating although it is quite hard. But beside those hard-looking easy puzzles and the easy looking hard ones there are still a lot of puzzles that look exactly as hard as they are. My Square-4 is the best example. Yesterday I managed to solve a Square-2 but still am not able to beat the Beast. Are you good at Square-x puzzles?

How are you today? Btw your one of my favorite KZread cubers

The Dino Dodecahedron is slightly harder than the Curvy Dino Cube because it's edges can get flipped. Takes a little bit of thinking to work it out the first time you solve it. Still a great puzzle though.

The gear cube is definitely a good place to start as it works in a completely different way from a standard 3x3, however, also consider 3x3 shape mods, puzzles which work like a 3x3 rubiks cube which are more difficult due to being able to change shape. The Fisher cube is a good example of this.

@rosebuster

6 жыл бұрын

This is true. I also have a mirror cube that was so confusing at first too, having to match pieces by shape rather than by colour. But now I can solve it quite smoothly. But I have an even more confusing 3x3x3 shape mod which is Meffert's Morph Egg. I was so stuck with this one at first. The shape makes pieces even harder to match with each other and because the puzzle has a few identical pieces as well as two pieces that look the same in every orientation, there are some funny problems you wouldn't get on a regular cube. Sometimes you have to swap identical pieces around to fix parity.

@bobmarley6306

6 жыл бұрын

Does the Meffert's Morph Egg have the same edge parity as the Fisher Cube?

@rosebuster

6 жыл бұрын

I don't think it's the same. You can always solve the edges. Something else happens instead. If you swap one of the edge pieces for another, you'll end up with a single center rotated by 90 degrees.

@bobmarley6306

6 жыл бұрын

Ohhhh, so its to do with edge permutation. I see, this wouldn't be noticeable on a Fisher cube, (if you build your cross on white or yellow faces), since the white and yellow centres have no permutation. And it wouldn't happen on an Axis Cube, (another mod I own), where each edge has a clear permutation. But on the Morph Egg you could definitely put edges in the incorrect position without noticing. That's interesting to know thanks for telling me about this parity.

Love your videos and also,because of this video I bought a gear cube thanks it's super easy

Thank you for doing another top 5 video. Unboxing next? Or nemesis?

People saying the 17x17 is hard buying... but have you ever tried to search for a dogic puzzle? Those things are extremely rare!

The gear cube is my favorite! It's so easy that it's hard to scramble without the first move being done already!

Ily and Ur videos Ur awesome keep it up! :D

Kenneth do you have a PO box? I wanted to send you a puzzle from Brazil that I don't think you've seen. It is a very easy but fun puzzle after you learn it.

awesome video!

hi redkb your my faverite youtuber i love the gear ball it is pretty easy

The 17x17 part made me laugh so hard :)

I think it might be a good idea to scramble and solve a 4x4 cube under these rules, 1) scramble like a 2x2, 2) do center switch like 3x3. Would you make a video about this idea?

Nice vid I love it

Hi Kenneth, just got back into twisty puzzles since the eighties, and your videos and reviews have been very helpful in my purchases. Quick question, there is a cube on the shelf seen in the middle of the screen of this video with a yellow face facing the camera that resembles the box from the Hellraiser movies. What's the name of that puzzle? Thanks!

You should do a cube giveaway

I wish I can figure out commutators one day. I solved a 9x9, but the last two centers were completely chaotic.

Hi love your vids

Another deceptively easy puzzle is the Kepler Cube. Basically a 3x3 with a Trajber's Octahedron inside it. One time on cam I stumbled across this puzzle on pCubes and I thought that was hard, but once I solved the outer 3x3 I noticed that the inner Trajber's Octahedron is also solved (excluding the centers), and after solving the centers the puzzle is solved. Woaj.

I think the Megaminx and the Mirror Cube are also deceptively easy puzzles. Because their soultions are very likely to the 3x3 Rubik's cube. In fact, when I got the Megaminx for first time I though "oh boi thats hardcore", but it's actually super simple if you can solve the 3x3 cube. btw cool video

I love the gear cube

The curvy Dino is actually just a more curvy version of a puzzle called the “compy cube”

This guy's last video was 4 years ago and just dipped after that

I am a puzzle collector and I tell all my "wannabe" friends to buy every shape-mods they can, plus the "basic" cubes (2x2, 3x3, 4x4) and only one "big", at most the 7x7 - because I always say: "don't waste your money buying anything bigger than a 7x7, because solving a 17x17 is just as fun as solving a 5x5, and LESS FUN than solving a 4x4 (this is the point when they ask: "why?", and I tell them something about parity cases). And not mentioning the fact that huge cubes are boring. So, to sumarise, for beginners, this is a very cool basic collection: a) Get one of each basic: 2x2, 3x3, 4x4 and 5x5; b) Get just ONE big cube, if you can waste some bucks, but go preferably for even-numbered ones (I recomend a 8x8, for best cost/benefit ratio); c) Get all shape-mods you find (Ghost, Axis, Mirror, Skewb, etc); d) Get at least one megaminx and one megamorphix (if money is not a concern, get also a 5x5 version of the megaminx, I forgot its name); e) Get one pyraminx (easy, but essential in a collection) and, if possible, a 5x5 pyraminx. f) Get the "square-1". After geting these ones, you are hooked, just keep searching and have fun!

thank you for video, I now have found interesting cubes which will collect (by the way I Russian)

dude you're awesome

cool stuff

Nice video i wish I could have a channel like this someday

the pyraminx duo is my no 1

I can't find the starminx anywhere :(

I wouldn't have expected to see the dogic in this list!

I think the mirror cube should’ve been on this list. I had one for months before I scrambled it just in case I couldn’t get it back. I was bored one day so I scrambled it and soon realised it was just a glorified 3x3 lol

You should add the pentacle to this list

Haha, so many channels I watch already direct me to that brilliant.org site! But yeah. The Curvy Dino Cube seems to be pretty much the same as the Redi Cube which I already have. Fun puzzle even if easy. :)

Keep it up And I’m early

Gear Shift is a weird one. You think it is really easy when looking at it but it ends up being a lot harder. However, after you learn how to solve it. It is extremely easy.

Pyraminx looks really hard for some people, but that thing is pretty easy.

Where did you buy your cubes?... coz im looking for some cubes like yours too... i'ts so cool

The 17x17 does look hard, but maybe I could think of it differently.

I can solve the gear cube, but not a 2x2 🤨
