YuXin Digital Puzzle Cube (3x3) — 3×3 cube with a sliding puzzle on each face

YuXin Digital Puzzle Cube 3×3 is a hybrid of a classic 3×3 cube and a digital sliding puzzle. Each face has numbered magnetic elements, so the challenge does not end with colours: the numbers can also be moved and ordered. This makes the cube much more confusing than a regular 3×3.

Who this cube is for

• For solvers who know 3×3 and want an added klotski challenge.
• For fans of unusual hybrid puzzles.
• For collectors of YuXin special models.
• If you want a regular speedcube, this is not the right choice.

Use feel

• The cube turns like a 3×3, but every face has extra sliding logic.
• The magnetic numbered tiles change the finger feel.
• Recognition is slower because you track both colour and number.

Magnets and mechanism

• Magnets are used for the numbered tiles on the faces.
• One tile can be removed to create space for sliding.
• The base is 3×3, but with an added sliding-puzzle layer.

Size, weight and materials

• Type: 3×3 twisty cube + digital/sliding puzzle.
• Package/weight: gross weight is often listed around 326–327 g.
• Surface: stickerless body with numbered elements.
• Use: non-WCA special puzzle.

Main advantages

• Two challenges in one cube.
• Very unusual concept.
• Good for collection and gifts.
• Requires more attention than a regular 3×3.

Things to keep in mind

• Not a speedcube.
• Can be very confusing if colours and numbers are both scrambled.
• Small removable tiles should be handled carefully.

How to use

You can first solve colours like a 3×3, then order the numbers on the faces. For a harder challenge, remove one magnetic tile and scramble the numbers before solving.
