Product Description

The wait is over, now available to pre-order -- the Rubik's 360. All the compulsive playing action of the original Rubik's Cube but as a brand new, spherical challenge. Don't get left behind, order yours today for delivery on the UK launch date of July 15th.

Have you got the skill, dexterity and smart thinking required to solve this Rubik's puzzle? Just get the coloured balls into the matching coloured domes... sounds easy, but then so did the Rubik's Cube! The answer lies in the clever way the spheres interact when you whirl and twirl the puzzle in your hands.

Once you get your hands on the 360, you won't want to stop till you've solved it! And once you have, you'll want to do it again... faster and faster. Who in your family and friends can complete it the fastest? The race is on, the Rubik's 360 has arrived! How Does it Work?
br>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.
br>The object is to roll, shake and rattle (or otherwise carefully 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!

Rubik's 360
It is a very good puzzle, I have partially solved it but it is going to take me quite a while to complete it. Puzzles that take a long time to solve can be very good and this is one of them

Learning Tool
Very well constructed but after 10 mins deliberation completed in an hour. Great for youngsters wanting to learn about gravity but too easy for an adult with good puzzle skills.

Too easy. Fun for an hour or so.
Rather disappointing, especially as it was so over-hyped. Completed it in an hour. OK, there may be more elegant solutions, but since it's physics-based there is an obvious easy way to solve it, which isn't "cheating", and which most people will instinctively try first, and which works every time.

I suppose reply value comes from solving it as quickly as possible.

Mr Rubik - please can we have a purely maths-based puzzle next time, like the Cube, Clock, etc, with no physical or random elements.
