I have recently developed an interest in this simple looking but still intriguing game of solving Rubik's Cube. I am learning it from my 11 year old nephew. I saw this in the hands of kids and even teenagers struggling to solve the puzzle. But I was drawn to this very recently by the achievement of a young Indian, Kabyanil Talukdar, from Assam (India) who has broken world record and has become the fastest Rubik's Cube solver. He can even solve a messed up cube blindfolded. He did that recently in 24.86 seconds. Have you ever tried this game (Rubik's Cube)?

I did try once years ago and managed it, but it was more luck than anything else and I am not likely to succeed again.

I did! But I will admit - I memorized the entire Rubik's cube solution book back when I was probably around 14 years old. What a cheat, right?

@skysnap You will get some tips online. You can watch video too. With the help of those I have been able to solve upto the second layer at least.
