Discover all kinds of twisty puzzles in all shapes and difficulties, like the Rubik's Cube and its variations, such as 2x2, 4x4, and Pyraminx. It offers solving guides, tips, and insights into these puzzles, appealing to both beginners and advanced enthusiasts.
Explore ThemFor those starting their Rubik’s journey, the Beginner’s Layer-by-Layer method
introduces the basics of solving in a structured and accessible way. By focusing on building the cube layer by layer, this method ensures steady progress and helps new cubers understand the cube’s mechanics while gaining confidence.
The cornerstone of competitive cubing, CFOP
is the method of choice for many speedcubers. By solving the cross, First Two Layers (F2L), Orientation of the Last Layer (OLL), and Permutation of the Last Layer (PLL) in sequence, CFOP strikes a perfect balance between efficiency and speed, making it ideal for mastering advanced techniques.
With a unique block-building approach, Roux offers a refreshing alternative
refreshing alternative to traditional methods. This method prioritizes efficiency and minimal moves by solving two blocks on one side, orienting the corners, and using slices to finish the edges. Roux is a favorite for those who enjoy a different solving style and prefer flexibility in their solutions.
ZZ Method focuses on edge orientation early in the solve, enabling efficient
lookahead and reduced cube rotations. With a foundation in EO (Edge Orientation) before block-building, this method minimizes awkward moves, creating a fluid and ergonomic solve ideal for advanced cubers seeking optimized efficiency.

"What happens most often is forgetting the final turn of the Down face after the yellow corner turns up correct. It's important to do all 4 moves!"
People often seek tutorials or step-by-step methods to solve the cube, such as:
Beginner's method (layer-by-layer approach).
Advanced methods like CFOP (Cross, F2L, OLL, PLL) or Roux.
This is a common question from those interested in the math behind the cube. The standard 3x3 cube has 43,252,003,274,489,856,000 (43 quintillion) possible configurations. This means that you will never be able to solve it just by turning the faces randomly.
People often wonder about variations beyond the standard 3x3 cube, such as:
Larger cubes (4x4, 5x5, etc.).
Non-cubic puzzles (Pyraminx, Megaminx, Mirror Cube, Skewb).
Shape Mods (Ghost Cube, Fischer Cube, or shape mods).
