i used to be able to do it
there's a way to do it.
you cant do 1 side at a time
you gotta do 2 sides or 3 at a time depending on what piece.
my gf does it alot. 2 mins
her friend can do it in about 40 seconds

How do you solve a puzzle based on getting the sides to have the same color without looking? :thinking:

fyi - the strategy is looking for combuinations.. what you should do is create an algorithm on paper.. when you move the thing left, write down what changes.. pretty soon, when you see a pattern you can look at the paper for reference, then once thats down youc an solve it pfertty fast.

yea they pretty much memorize what color is on which side. and solve it in their head real time with their hands accordingly.
anyone can do it. just take practice

i could do 1 side and all the same color on all four sides oh the side made. does that made sense? like the top would be all red and on the sides all green, blue, white, and yellow but thats as far as i could ever get.
