INTRODUCTIONS
The "Rubik's Cube" was just the beginning. That single ingeniously innovative puzzle became the grandfather of an entire genre. Some call them "sequential movement puzzles", others prefer "hand-held puzzles". The ambiguous term "3D puzzles" is often used, as is the unmistakable (but clearly copyrighted) term "Rubik-like puzzles". Around here, we'll be referring to them by another one of their popular names: "twisty puzzles"! This site is dedicated to documenting and displaying each and every specimen that we (as a community) can track down and commit to bits and bytes.
TwistyPuzzles.com is no longer just the web's largest collection of twisty puzzles, it is now also the place where speedcubers, collectors and builders from around the world gather to post their collections online, read articles, and exchange ideas in the forum. Explore the complete list of features by using the menu on the top left of each screen.
It is my hope that the collection of puzzle information displayed in the puzzle database will largely be a group effort. Something of this magnitude is simply too much for one person to do alone. I believe we can do this, and encourage you to check out the Contribute page by clicking the "Contribute Info" button in the menu.
My name is Sandy. I am the developer and host of the site. I hope you find it a very informative and useful tool. Please feel free to e-mail me about anything twisty-puzzle-related by clicking the "Contact" button in the menu.
