Rubik's Edge

This supremely fun brain teaser puzzle happens to also be an excellent way to prepare for the vastly greater permutational possibilities offered by Rubik's 2x2 and 3x3 cubes. Equivalent to a single layer of a standard 3x3x3 Rubik's Cube puzzle, the Edge is still plenty challenging. Its relative simplicity, however, enables aspiring solvers of all ages to experience ongoing confidence as they explore finding solutions. That reassuring sense of mastery makes the mental gymnastics and perpetual physical manipulation all the more enjoyable. In tackling the challenge, various combinations of trial and error, memory, logic and reasoning are brought to bear, mental gymnastics that prove to be enormously satisfying. Brain teaser puzzle lovers and newcomers alike find Rubik's Edge to be so compelling they don't want to put it down. Thankfully, the highly portable Edge's slender design allows it to fit easily in just about any sized pocket, at the ready for more highly engaging fun whenever a free moment occurs!
