In order to solve the 4x4 cube you will need to know how to solve a 3x3 Rubik's cube first. If you are not familiar with the solution or do not remember it, please go and review the 3x3 solution before you continue. It is best to master the 3x3 solution before going for the 4x4...
The solution is more complicated than the classicRubik's Cube method, but if you know how to solve a 3x3x3 then you shouldn't have difficulties with this one either. We solve the 4x4 grouping the 4 centers and the edge-pairs together, and finally solving it like a 3x3. Some speedcube...
When you first look at the cube the first thing you need to do is rotate it so it is in your preferred orientation (for this scramble, please use the orientation yellow on top, orange on front). Next you need to look at the buffer edge. Which edge is in the buffer position: Orange...
To solve this puzzle you have to knowthe solution of the 4x4x4 Cube. We are using thesame notationand the basic idea is the same: First we put together the centre 3x3 blocks, then we pair the edge pieces thensolve it like a regular 3x3x3 Rubik's Cube. Thistwisty puzzlemight be even...
Solve the first three edges intuitively and use the algorithm to do the last one. To move the front-right-bottom edge piece to the front-right-top do:FDFD'F 2. Bottom-middle layer edgesAlgorithm to switch the two edges in the bottom-middle layer in the back:...
