What Is a Rubik’s Cube
The Rubik’s Cube is a 3D puzzle invented in 1974 by Hungarian architect Erno Rubik. Each face has 9 smaller squares, with 6 colors total. The goal is to make each face a single color.

The most common beginner method is LBL (Layer-by-Layer). You solve one face first (usually white), then the middle layer, and finish with the last layer.
Which cube should I buy?
For beginners, a standard 3x3 cube is best. Look for a model that turns smoothly and feels stable in your hands.
