About Rubik\u2019s\u00ae<\/p>\n

The Rubik\u2019s\u00ae Cube was created in 1974 by Ern\u0151 Rubik, a Hungarian architecture professor. Rubik later used the Cube as a learning exercise to teach his students about three-dimensional spaces. Little did he know his \u2018magic cube\u2019 (as he originally named it) would become one of the most famous puzzles of all time!<\/p>\n

By the 1980s, the _Rubik\u2019s Cube_ was a worldwide craze, selling millions every year and cementing its pop culture legacy. It featured in \u2013 among many others \u2013 The Simpsons, The Big Bang Theory, a Spice Girls video and major Hollywood movies: the six famous colours were everywhere. The popularity of the _Rubik\u2019s Cube_ continued \u2013 and continues \u2013 to grow around the world. Harry Styles featured the Cube in the visuals (and merch!) for his last tour, and it appeared in Spider-Man: Into the Spider-verse, as well as Young Sheldon, Disney\u2019s Moon Knight and Wednesday on Netflix.<\/p>\n

Today, the _Rubik\u2019s Cube_ is acknowledged as one of the most beloved toys of all time. Each year, millions are sold, solved, and shared among friends, families and puzzle seekers alike.<\/p>\n
