Game Rules:
2-player game: Each player selects three different sets of colored Cubies. For example, Player 1 selects the red, blue, and yellow Cubies, and Player 2 selects the green, orange and white Cubies. Each player should have 12 Cubies.
3-player game: Each player selects two different sets of colored Cubies. For example, Player 1 selects the red and blue Cubies; Player 2 selects the yellow and green Cubies, and Player 3 selects the orange and white Cubies. Each player should have eight Cubies.
4-player game: Each player selects one set of colored Cubies. Any remaining Cubies should be placed to one side and these will not be used in the current game.

1. Players take turns in this game, with the youngest player making the first move.
2. On a turn, a player can choose to do any one of the following:
- Insert a Cubie: A player may remove the top door of Rubik's Cage and place one Cubie into any of the eight sections.
- Turn the Cage: A player may turn one layer of Rubik's Cage one quarter turn (90 degrees) in either direction.
- Flip the Cage: A player may flip Rubik's Cage upside down by rotating it 180 degrees.
(Note: During the game, a player cannot directly reverse the preceding player's move.)
3. Play continues to the right until all Cubies have been placed. If a player has no Cubies remaining, he/she must either turn a layer or flip Rubik's Cage on his/her turn.
4. The first player to align three of his/her Cubies of the same color in a row on one face of Rubik's Cage - vertically, horizontally or diagonally - is the winner!
If the game continues until the last Cubie is placed in Rubik's Cage and no player has won, the game is a DRAW.

All of our products are guaranteed to be free of defects, or we will replace and reship at no cost to you. Please contact us within 4 weeks (28 days) past the delivery date to report any issues with items you have purchased.

Please note that some new cubes when being used for the first few times may experience what is termed a "pop". This is when one or more parts of a puzzle pop out without any damage actually being done to any of the pieces. This also occurs from time to time during normal usage. Pops are typically not considered a defect if the parts which come off can be reassembled by hand.

The corners on 2x2 puzzles should not be twisted as doing so may snap the piece. Damage caused by corner twisting is not considered to be a defect.
