Professor Rubik is Back With the Rubik"s 360
Professor Erno Rubik is back, and has possibly created his greatest challenge ever - the amazing and extremely difficult Rubik's 360.
Relying more on physics than maths, on which the record breaking Rubik's Cube was based, Rubik's 360 is sure to challenge even the most dextrous and skilled of users.
Rubik's 360 is made of 3 slightly different sized spheres which are set within each other, and starts with 6 small coloured balls set within the inner globe.
The challenge is to manoeuvre these balls into the sealable pockets that are set on the outermost sphere.
Sounds easy, but when you consider that there are only 2 holes in the Rubik's 360 that they can sent through, and one false move or shake of the hand can send the balls tumbling away again, this game will probably be one of the most addictive ever invented.
Rubik's 360 is true to the inventor's favourite colours of yellow, red, white, orange, blue and green which he uses as the colours of the balls and pockets.
Launching worldwide in August 2009, Rubik's 360 is likely to be top of millions of kids' wish lists for Christmas - and on a few adults as well! Some lucky people have already got their hands on a sample, and as with the cube it can take minutes, days or never! As a product that does not require batteries or electrical power of any sort - other than that supplied by a human brain - Rubik's 360 is just the sort of toy needed to brighten up the life of anyone from 8 to 80!
