Pyraminx: the puzzle you learn in an afternoon
The Pyraminx is a four-faced tetrahedron and it is by a distance the easiest official WCA event to learn. It has four tips that turn on their own and a middle layer, and that is it. Someone who has never solved anything can crack it in an afternoon with a little intuition, and that is the appeal: it hooks people without frustrating them.
We stock 10 models from €4.90 to €19.99, by QiYi (5 models), SengSo, ShengShou, YuXin and Ziina.
Beyond the standard Pyraminx
- High-end magnetics. The SengSo YuFeng MagLev has a ball-core and magnetic levitation, the same technology as competition 3x3s.
- Master Pyraminx. The ShengShou Master 4x4 adds another layer. It is to the Pyraminx what the 4x4 is to the 3x3.
- Gear Pyraminx. With visible cogs, it turns in a completely different way.
- Pyraminx Duo. A simplified version with just four corners and four centres, easier still.
Frequently asked questions
Is it easier than a Rubik's cube?
Considerably. A 3x3 requires you to learn a method; a Pyraminx can be reasoned out, and competition times sit under two seconds.
Is it a good first puzzle for a child?
Probably the best there is. The reward arrives quickly, and that is what makes them want to carry on.
Is a magnetic one worth it?
Only if you are going to time yourself. To learn and enjoy, any of the beginner models under €8 does the job.
