[1]From the flamboyantly orange `199 Thinktank volume 8 Brain Teaser collection, emerged eight light weight three-square-centimetre inky blue cubes. Integr8 taunts you with the usual 15 minutes Thinktank dare to solve a seemingly simple challenge with a few play pieces involved.
Integrate eight cubes into a single cube with only interconnected half circles and blank surfaces visible! That’s it, as far as the rules go. The two cubes wide and two cubes high stack is a solitary endeavour. There is absolutely no way this works as a single player game, and if you must share Integr8, choose your playmate wisely. Mine was scathing. She thought it in poor form to try to pass of a solo game as a twin task. And was equally unimpressed with the idea of playing alternately.
Integr8 will appeal if the Rubik’s cube holds your attention, even when you can’t figure more than a couple of sides. It will distract a hyper active 11-year-old for a short while. Just when you think you’re getting along very nicely, and you’re down to your last two cubes, that sinking feeling slithers back. There’s no way to correct and close. You’ve got to start over every time!
