      Yeah, once you see it, you started to notice that almost all "different" cubes are just shape-mods of a tiny handful of base mechanics. I noticed it back when Nathan Wilson was making his mods, baffled at how it was possible to turn a regular 3rd-order cube into so many "different" cubes. Also, once you realize this, it becomes a lot easier to solve most cubes because they're just a 3×3×3 or a skewb or a pyrminx, you just have to hold them at the right angel. 😉

    So when did it hit you that 25% of the pieces of the triangles, and about 17% of the cube pieces didn't need to be removed?
    As is, you could have left one color on each one alone and just matched it.

  • @DracoSuave
    @DracoSuave Před rokem +1

    Mathematically they are identical puzzles, it's just that the edges of one analog to the faces of the other.
    So uselessness can't be measured by the complexity of the puzzle, because they're identical.
    However, the unicorn cube has a much bigger piece count, which means that it's putting more bits of plastic to accomplish identical puzzle-uselessness. Thus, it has an extra source of uselessness.

    I'd argue the cube is a slightly harder puzzle than the pyraminx, simply because having more colors may make it a little harder to tell how each piece is supposed to be oriented. In which case I suppose the pyraminx force cubes would be worse?
