Our cube

The Rubik's cube is much more than just an engaging puzzle: it has become a real world phenomenon. It is a regular character in books, plays and Hollywood blockbusters, the subject of university courses, and a sports tool in world competitions. During its nearly half-century history, it became the game of almost one billion people. The Cube has now become a well-known symbol of the joy of thinking and the solution of seemingly impossible problems. Thousands of articles and countless books have been published worldwide about this wonderful object and its creator, but Ernő Rubik - who avoided the public eye in his life - has never told what it was like for him to follow the unexpected success and strange adventures of this small object in the wider world. Our cube - which is published in many parts of the world at the same time as the Hungarian edition - invites the reader on an educational journey in the fields of mathematics, psychology, education, visual arts, design, architecture and pop culture. This is a thought-provoking, captivating, dream-like trip with one of the most unique creative minds of our modern age.
