Cheap Rubik's Slide On Sale
I should probably say I am a bit of a puzzle nut. I own dozens and dozens of Rubik cubes with that kind of twisty puzzles. That I might be a little bias in my assessment. However you do not enjoy that hardcore cuber Rubik's Slide.
"Go" lights you push on either horizontally direction. The lights will be a step in the direction of push, a layer / layer wrapping back around to the other side. You can also twist the topclockwise / counterclockwise rotation to make the lights on the center square.
There are a couple different nodes. In a system appropriate to try to complete the set number of puzzles in a certain time limit. I prefer to play free when you can just take your time to solve the puzzle before moving on to the next. Has three difficulty levels. Each mode feels about the right difficulty. Easy is pretty easy. Medium is much harder. It is quite difficult challenge.
One problem is that every timeturn off the game, it "resets." When you play free mode, generally begins with simple puzzles and they get somewhat harder as you proceed. If turning it off, goes back to the puzzles easier when you start again. If you let it auto-shutoff (and not doing anything for about 1-2 minutes) then it'll pick up where left off. But it would be nice to be able to turn it off manually and continue where left off. There is also no way to skip the puzzle if you stuck only to turnit off and starting back from the beginning.
Yet despite the limitations of the interface is a fun puzzle. You can generally figure out the puzzle in a few minutes to anywhere in few seconds. Even those times where I think the solution I have always managed to "luck" in the solution within a few minutes.
