addictive September 9, 2009 Audrey Day (texas) it is very deceivingly addictive......once you pick it up and start making different shapes you cant put it down
gift with a twist June 14, 2009 Great auntie (australia) i had amazon send this as a gift directly to my 10 year old nephew in another country, so i haven't seen him in action with it. in his note he wrote: "thankyou for the Rubix Twist because you can do anything with it." let me add here that i also sent him a rubic 4x4 and it broke immediately. most disappointing, as that was what he really wanted.
Even more fascinating than Rubik's magic (and that's pretty good)!! May 9, 2009 D. Lockman (Southern California, United States) 1 out of 1 found this review helpful
Another really cool shape-changing object from the Rubik Co.
You can solve the various puzzle variations, or just let your hands wander
and see the shifts in shapes and configuration unfold.
It tends to be more "durable" once you have a few minutes
to get the "feel" of it (rotating sections & pieces
& not forcing anything).
The only times the Twist seems to break are when some someone unused
to this "feel" applies too much force on a section *in the wrong direction* in
the 1st minute or so of use. I've seen both 4-year old kids and 47-year old adults do this.
But most folks get the fairly gentle touch required fairly quickly,and "safe" angle of twists,
and have a fun time with it.
Another great coffee-table toy.
toy for creativity May 9, 2009 Marin Georges-richard (Romania) stop buying plastic guns and other such things to your child, buy something that can stimulate his creativity, such as this toy.
Perfect for kids too young for the Cube -- and everyone else! April 28, 2009 Albert E. (New Haven, CT) This was one of my favorite toys as a kid. I played with it all the time an created many interesting shapes. A great toy for all ages. Not as frustrating/challenging/impossible as the Rubik's Cube and in that sense more educational as most people will play with it a lot more.
