Meffert's´s M5045 Ghost Cube Recent Toys Brain teasers Puzzle, White

Product Information

I had a bit of a problem with this cube because the edge pieces (the ones that correspond to the center) easily fell off. I highly recommend this to you who can solve 3×3 and are looking for a real challenge, or just want a really nice cube in the collection!

As an added challenge, if all layers of the cube are aligned in a certain way, another turn becomes possible – straight through the middle of the aligned layers. This means that a scrambled Ghost Cube can look rather daunting, just as any shape-shifting puzzle might. Etsy assumes no responsibility for the accuracy, labelling, or content of sellers' listings and products. In fact, if you know how to solve a regular Rubik’s Cube and have some knowledge of shape-shifting puzzles, you may be able to complete this puzzle unaided, although be aware that there is a parity case for this puzzle. Expert gamers and beginners alike will appreciate the Ghost Cube Puzzle, a sinister twist on the traditional gaming cube, designed by the legendary German puzzle inventor Uwe Meffert.Personalised advertising may be considered a “sale” or “sharing” of information under California and other state privacy laws, and you may have a right to opt out. It barely cuts corners at all, which in combination with the fact that it shape-shifts makes it difficult to get the layers completely in line with each other sometimes, which can make it easy to get off in the middle of algorithms if you are not careful. The irregular shapes of the different pieces makes it very difficult to see which pieces fit together and where the pieces are supposed to be.

Stickers are available in several colors for the cube and can be purchased on the ghost cube stickers product page. Even rarer is the Red Ghost Cube (image 15), which was made in very limited quantities, and reserved for special prizes and gifts by Uwe Meffert.You may think this is just a normal six sided cube, but within a few twists you'll realise that there are numerous angles and shapes. Also, a special "Jade Green" limited edition was available only for members of the Jade Club (image 16), who purchased a full set, for 39 USD.

Perfect if you want a different and tricky challenge without having to learn a lot of new algorithms! I bought it in black and it comes with a white cube stand and 2 sets of stickers in silver and gold. Many different versions of 3x3 puzzles include sticker modifications (keeping the same 3x3 puzzle, but modifying the shapes/sizes/designs of the puzzle’s stickers to create interesting new puzzles with different challenges), shape modifications (cuboids made from 3x3s, mirror blocks that require the knowledge of shape rather than colour to be solved), and even some shape-shifting puzzles that can be turned in more ways than normal depending on how the layers are aligned, one type of which is known as the Ghost Cube.
