Cube Master puts 76 magic cubes and twisty puzzles on your phone: a twisty puzzle simulator, drawn in 3D and turned with a swipe. It began as a way to try a puzzle before buying it. Now it is also a place to practise, time your solves, and see how 49 of these puzzles are solved, one move at a time. THE PUZZLES • Cubes from 2x2 all the way to 20x20, the classic 3x3 magic cube included • Pyraminx from 2x2 to 10x10, the 4x4 Master Pyraminx among them • Megaminx, Kilominx, Gigaminx and Teraminx • Skewb, Skewb Ultimate, Dino cubes, Redi cube and Fadi cube • Mirror cubes from 2x2 to 7x7, a Mirror Skewb and a Mirror Pyraminx • The Square-1 family: Square-0, Square-1, Square-2, Super Square-1 and Mirror Square-1 • Cuboids: 1x3x3, 2x2x3, 2x3x3 and 3x3x4 • The clock puzzle, with nine clocks on each side • Snake puzzles from 24 to 72 pieces, and a gallery of shapes other players have built and shared • 13 picture cubes, including Sudoku, Earth, Maze, Dice, Food, Number and Arrow cubes STUCK? A GUIDE FOR 49 PUZZLES (NEW IN 2.0) Scramble a puzzle, or turn it any way you like, then ask for the solution. Cube Master draws each move as an arrow on the puzzle itself. • Follow along by hand: turn the face the arrow points to, and the next arrow appears • Turned the wrong way? An orange arrow shows you how to turn back • Or press play and watch the puzzle solve itself, move by move • On cubes, the move notation follows your view of the cube, so the letters match what you see • It solves the puzzle you have on screen, and works it out on your phone, even offline The solver covers cubes from 2x2 to 6x6, Megaminx and Kilominx, Pyraminx up to 6x6 (the Master Pyraminx too), Skewb, Square-1, the mirror cubes up to 5x5, the clock, the picture cubes and more. The giants (7x7 and up, Gigaminx, Teraminx, Pyraminx 7x7 and up) are left for you to solve on your own. PRACTICE AND COMPETE • A solve timer that keeps your fastest time and your average of 5 • World leaderboards for each puzzle, so you can see where your times stand • Undo for the turn you did not mean to make • Scramble any puzzle with one tap • Lock the view while you solve, or turn the whole puzzle around to look at every side If you are a speedcuber, it is a handy cube timer and a way to warm up on a puzzle you left at home. If you are just curious what a Megaminx or a Square-1 feels like, it is a cheap way to find out before you buy one. PREMIUM Cube Master is supported by ads.

Falling blocks were never this competitive. Tetrobe turns the stacking puzzle you grew up on into a real-time multiplayer contest - place fast, think faster, and outmaneuver everyone else sharing your board. This isn't a race to clear lines. It's a contest to outlast. Every player has hearts to protect. Reach your rivals' hearts before they reach yours, and be the last one holding the board. WORLD MODE - ONE SHARED GRID Drop into a persistent world where far more than a handful of players build and expand at the same time. Wander too far and edge markers show you exactly which direction each rival lies in, color-matched to their blocks - and one tap takes you straight back to your own heart. REAL-TIME MULTIPLAYER MATCHES Prefer something tighter? Start a match with up to six players at once. The board is shared and the pace is quick: one clever placement can undo a rival's plan while setting up your next move. SINGLE PLAYER, ANY TIME No connection, no problem. Play a full match against a built-in opponent across three difficulty levels - the same rules engine the live servers run, so practice genuinely carries over. SPECIAL BLOCKS, REAL STRATEGY Walls shield the ground you have claimed. Hearts are what everyone is playing for. Read the board, plan two moves ahead, and place at exactly the right moment. FRIENDS & PRIVATE LOBBIES Add friends with a friend code, see who's online, and open a private lobby to settle who is actually the best. EASY TO LEARN, HARD TO PUT DOWN Anyone can place a block. Winning takes nerve. Balance speed against strategy, draw your rivals into a mistake, and claim the space they leave open. Free to play. Gather your friends or take on the world.

Cube Master's advantage is ratings volume (436 vs 1) and update cadence (every 5 days vs every 3 weeks). On price, device support and iOS requirement there is nothing between them.
