Dice Guess

6/10 Spatial die rotation puzzle TLDR: the well-known cognitive test of "rotate a cube-shaped die mentally", with 444 winding paths. It's pretty challenging until you figure out how to solve it analytically instead of spatially (see below). Still, worth playing at least for a while. Especially if you have a kid who is into math or are into math yourself. Or if you're 65+ and you need "brain workout" Good: - the task of mental rotations is challenging So-so: - looks are very basic. Though a puzzle like this probably wouldn't need anything fancier - no music - it's just 1 puzzle type Bad: - actually nothing Now, the spoiler how to solve levels pretty fast analytically: - your task is essentially to keep track which 3 numbers will be visible on the cube at the turning points along the path. To not forget those intermediary results, just keep repeating those numbers while you're thinking. E.g. "6-3-5" where "6" is the left side of the die, "3" the top side, and "5" the right side - for every sequence of tiles until the next turn, there are just 4 possible cases: -- if there is a straight path of the length of 4 ahead, it's the same as if the die wouldn't rotate at all. So you just…
