More about this game
The goal is to restore a scrambled 3x3 block so that each of its six sides shows a single solid color. The core loop involves orbiting the camera to inspect the block and dragging individual tiles to rotate specific layers by 90 degrees. The puzzle tracks your total move count as you work toward the solution. A run ends when all pieces are returned to their home coordinates and the status reads Solved form.
Tips
- The shuffle button applies exactly 10 random moves by default, making it a great starting point for practicing short solves.
- If you lose track of your sequence, use the undo button to step backward through your history and reduce your move count.
- Make sure to drag a tile past the threshold of 18 pixels to successfully trigger a layer twist instead of an orbit.
Questions
How do I look at the back of the puzzle?
Drag your pointer on the quiet background space outside of the block to orbit the camera around the puzzle.
Can I restart if I get completely stuck?
Yes, clicking the reset button will instantly snap all pieces back to their original solved coordinates and reset your move count to zero.
How does the game count my moves?
Every time you successfully twist a layer, the move counter increases by one. Using the undo button will decrease the counter by one.
