Duomoto Magnetic Puzzle Cube - SubZero
Whether you have played with the original Shashibo Cubes or not, these are a fun twist on the same premise. Duomotos consist of two separate rings of 3-D, magnetic triangles in the same color patterns. Together, they make a 2.25” cube, but that’s not all. You can make all sorts of designs, even combining several sets. There is a satisfying clickety-clack sound that makes them a great fidget toy! ~Sara
Duomoto is the latest geometric, magnetic shape shifting puzzle from the makers of Shashibo! This amazing cube is powered by 96 rare earth magnets and its most incredible feature is its ability to divide and recombine in ways you would never think possible.
The secret surprise inside is that one cube is made of TWO halves! It’s the perfect magnetic puzzle cube to share with a friend since you can both play with a single Duomoto because it splits perfectly in half!
Duomoto shares the twisting and turning feel of our Cubendi and Shashibo magnetic puzzle cubes – but Duomoto feels a bit more like a true puzzle. The magnetic polarity of specific shapes only connects one way, but the shape itself can be made two ways. Every twist is a brain twister!
Also, the possible shapes of the segments and the orientation of the magnetism allow for creating both stable and moving combinations. Duomoto’s double features magically multiply when combined with other Duomoto! The possibilities are endless – and so is the fun!
I bought 3 of these for gifts and one to have at my desk because they are so much fun! The recipients were between 11 and 25 years old and they all loved playing with their Shashibo. Now, as one of us gets a new one in the office, inevitably, interest sparks again. They are so pretty! As you play with them, the soft clickety-clack of the magnets is relaxing. I am sure some people actually try to make a particular design, but I take a more organic approach - flipping it around until something cool appears and then Voila, look at that! The closed cube design is deceptively small at just under 2.5", when it can be over 7" across wide open. Some are shiny and some are matte finish, but each has 4 patterns within one cube. Use the app for inspiration or free style like I do and be surprised! ~Sara
