Skewb Diamond

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The Skewb Diamond is an octahedron-shaped puzzle similar to the Rubik's Cube. It has 14 movable pieces which can be rearranged in a total of 138,240 possible combinations. This puzzle is the dual polyhedron of the Skewb.

[edit] Description

The Skewb Diamond has 6 octahedral corner pieces and 8 triangular face centers. All pieces can move relative to each other. It is a deep-cut puzzle: its planes of rotation bisect it.

The purpose of the puzzle is to scramble its colors, and then restore it to its original solved state.
