What is a Megaminx, how do I solve one and which ones are the top models and what should I purchase? Read on to find out.
What is it?
The Megaminx is a tetrahedron twisty puzzle, and is one of the side events in competitions governed by the WCA. Originally patented by Uwe Meffert, the puzzle can be solved in a similar manner to 3x3, where it can be solve layer by layer. It is certainly a great puzzle to pick up and can be a great challenge after having learned the 3x3 and other NxN puzzles
It is heavily advised that cubers looking to pick up megaminx also lubricate their puzzle, due to the number of pieces present in the puzzle, which leads to a lot of fricition when turning in comparison to a standard 3x3.
