![]() The Cube appears to be made up of 27 smaller cubes (8 corner cubes, 12 edge cubes, 6 more cubes-one in the center of each face, and 1 cube (which doesn't actually exist) in the center of the Rubik Cube). Each face has 9 colored tiles in a 3 by 3 arrangement. If there aren’t any corners in the right spot, just use the pattern until one is.A Rubik Cube has 6 faces. Rotate the left vertical column forward.Ĭontinue the pattern until all the corners are in their proper places.Use the following pattern to rotate the remaining three corners: Start with a corner that’s in the proper position and hold the cube so that the corner is on top of the right-hand side. As long as the blue-yellow-orange corner is in the corner of the blue, yellow and orange faces, it doesn’t matter if the colors are facing the right way. In this step, you just need to make sure the yellow corners are in the right places, not necessarily the right orientations. Step 6: yellow corners Credit: Andrew Call / Call Creative If you have a line, you’ll need to do it only once. If you have the dot, you’ll need to do the pattern three times. Rotate the “L” to a line and the line into the cross. The pattern transforms a dot into an “L” (It should be a backward “L.”) Orientation is important. Rotate the right vertical column back, toward you.If you have anything else, you’re going to need to use this pattern: If you have a cross, good work! You can skip this step. There could be one yellow dot in the center, an “L” pattern, a solid horizontal line or a cross. ![]() There are four possible positions that your cube can be in. It will be on the opposite side of the solid white face - and should currently be facing up. Step 4: yellow cross Credit: Andrew Call / Call Creative Just use the pattern to get it out of its current incorrect position, rotate the top layer to position it above a matching center, then use the pattern once more to place it where it needs to be. Rotate the entire top row counterclockwise.īoth of these patterns can also be used if the color you need is already in the center row but in the wrong position.Rotate the right vertical column back toward you.Rotate the right vertical column forward, away from you.If you would like to transfer a center edge piece to the right center square, use the pattern: Rotate the left vertical column back, toward you.Rotate the rear horizontal column to the left.Rotate the left vertical column forward, away from you.Rotate the rear horizontal column to the right.To transfer the center edge piece to the left center square, use this pattern: Rotate the (now) top layer until one of the center edge pieces matches the center square. Flip the cube so the white face is on the bottom. Now, it’s time to complete the middle layer around the cube. Step 3: second layer Credit: Andrew Call / Call Creative Continue the process until the top face of your cube is solid white and the top layer around the outside of the cube matches the center of the corresponding faces. Then use the pattern again to move it to the correct position in the top layer. ![]() Rotate the bottom layer of the cube as needed to get the corner directly underneath where you want it to be. If the corner you need is already on the top but in the wrong position, use the same pattern to flip it to the bottom. Rotate the front horizontal column to the right.Rotate the right vertical column forward.Rotate the front horizontal column to the left.Rotate the left vertical column back toward you.If the corner you need is on the bottom of the cube, hold the cube so that the corner you need to move is in the top right corner, and use this pattern to flip it to the top corner directly above its current position: ![]() If you need some help, there are some algorithms you can use to get the pesky corners where you need them. If you’re determined to solve the puzzle without using patterns, try to get the corners into position yourself. Now that you have the cross on top and the corresponding top colored edges all lined up, it’s time to get the white corners into position. Step 2: white corners Credit: Andrew Call / Call Creative ![]()
