Join us on a journey into the diabolical cube, a 3D puzzle built from six single-layer polycubes. We uncover its ancient history, the surprising 13 distinct solutions (mirror images included), and how computational geometry helps map the puzzle’s solution space. Along the way we connect the puzzle to real-world topics like computer graphics, robotics, and protein folding, showing how play can spark deep scientific insight.
