Smart games Criss Cross cube

Content:

- 1 cube

- 13 bolts (4 short-red, 4 medium-yellow, 5 long-blue)

- Booklet with 80 3D challenges and solutions

Before you start

Remove all of the bolts from the cube by unscrewing them.

How to play

1. Choose a challenge. Easier challenges show two adjacent sides of the cube. More difficult challenges only show one side. Screw the shown bolts into the cube as indicated.

2. Fit in ALL the remaining bolts:

A) Often bolts will block each other.

B) 8 holes will remain empty in each solution. Holes on the side(s) that are shown empty in the challenge (white circles), should remain empty in the solution!

3. You have solved the challenge when all the bolts are screwed completely inside the cube. There is only one solution, found at the end of the challenge booklet.

HINTS

Challenges that show only 1 side of the cube do not indicate a specific orientation of the cube. In these cases, players must note there are 2 or 4 different orientations possible as they set up the cube, and therefore also multiple starting positions for the bolts. Finding the correct orientation is part of the challenge, as only 1 starting position will result in a solution.
