Filed under What Present To Buy Someone Who Loves Puzzles
As a nation, we love our puzzles - in the 1980's the Rubik's Cube was everywhere - over 300 million copies have been sold to date and, incredibly, one eighth of the world's population has one.
Nothing has come close to it's popularity until this decade with the arrival of the phenomenally popular Sudoku puzzle. You can't open a newspaper without seeing one, there are a vast array of puzzle books dedicated to them and there are even Sudoku Championship competitions,
So if you crossed a Rubiks Cube with Sudoku, you would imagine you'd end up with the most incredible puzzle in the world. . .
And here it is - the Sudokube.
It's effectively a Rubik's cube but made of numbers rather than colours. You play in the same way as you do a Rubik's Cube, but need to get the numbers on each side as you would in a Sudoku grid.
For those people who mastered the Rubik's Cube and who love doing Sudoku's, this has got to be a dream come true.
The Sudokube is available online for £5.95 click here for more details
