Rubik’s Revenge Cube 4 X 4
From Hasbro Games
This Rubik’s Cube is bigger, better and more mind-boggling. Building on the classic 3 x 3″ cube, this larger model is 4 x 4″ and requires some fun new twists and turns. Includes: Instruction booklet and a triangular stand. Billions of puzzle combinations but only 1 solution!
Hi, I got this for my son on his birthday, and he loved it. He already knew how to do the 3×3x3, so it was not too hard for him. There is another 4×4x4 from a different company, but I highly do not recommended it. I do say that it is very stiff in the beginning, but, if you put a lubricant in it such as vaseline or silicone, it moves incredibly fast. I think that this is a great toy that all people who like rubik’s cube should get.
The rubik’s 4×4 cubes are perfect for someone who loves the original. It requires a whole different way of thinking to solve it. The Rubik’s Revenge cubes are undoubtedly difficult, but with time and practice they become just like the 3×3. At first they seem impossible, but after learning the techniques, anyone can do it. You can also use this cube as a 2×2, when it is in its solved position. When I got my Rubik’s Revenge, it turned EXTREMELY smoothly, didn’t lock up at all, and was very maneuverable. However, I have a friend who also got one, but his was really stiff from the beginning. The Rubik’s Revenge is pretty durable, but sometimes edge pieces will pop out if it locks up too quickly. This has only happened to me two or three times though, over the 7 months I’ve had my cube.
