New Rubik's Cube 360 A Hit Or A Flop?

The Rubik’s Cube 360 could be the hottest game of 2009. The often-shy Hungarian inventor has come out of the wood work to release this new puzzle game. He is hoping to match the success of the original Rubiks cube that sold over 350 million cubes, which was released, in the early 1980s.

The game is made up of clear spheres that are inside each other. The object of the game is to get the 6 different colored ball into corresponding holes. The challenge comes in when you try to keep certain balls in their holes while trying to adjust the cube 360 to get the other balls into their home. Just like the original Rubics cube there is only one solution to the game. The main difference between the Rubiks Cube 360 and the older version is that the 360 does not require any mathematics to solve the puzzle. Instead the Rubiks Cube 360 relies more on physics and patience.
