Fridolin IQ Test "Der verrückte Würfel" – Wooden Snake Cube Puzzle

Der verrückte Würfel by Fridolin is a wooden IQ test and dexterity game: a snake cube whose wooden pieces are held together by an elastic band. Your task is to fold and turn the chain so that it forms a cube. At 4.8 × 4.8 × 4.8 cm it fits into any jacket pocket or handbag and is handy for a quick puzzle whenever you have a spare moment.

Instructions are included. The elastic band holds the pieces together, so no individual pieces get lost while you experiment.

How to solve it

First bring the wooden pieces into a loose shape and check at each step whether the folded pieces will have room in the finished cube. If it jams, do not pull hard on the elastic band; instead go back a step and turn the last piece in a different direction. It helps to start at one end of the chain and work systematically, piece by piece. With each attempt, make a note of which turns did not work. That way you will reach the solution step by step.

Safety

The cube consists of small wooden pieces.
