Rubik’s Cube certainly has had a fine run where puzzle toys are concerned, and what better way to give it a new leases of life than to introduce a modern element to it. Dubbed Rubik’s Revolution, it does not twist in segments like its ancestor, but instead each side will independently light up while the middle squares have been replaced with a glowing button. A combination of lights, sound and voice effects enable you to indulge in half a dozen ‘core games’ such as Light Speed, Rapid Recharge, Pattern Panic, Cube Catcher, Code Cracker and Multiplayer Madness. The main idea would be rotating the cube in your hands, pushing the middle buttons in specific order within the shortest time possible. Rubik’s Revolution retails for $19.99 a pop. Having said all that, I still haven’t solved the Rubik’s Cube yet to this day. Shame on me!
