How to play Cube Count

  1. Every small cube in every layer counts once.
  2. The board passes from left to right in three seconds. This is observation time, not an answer countdown.
  3. Wait until the cubes leave before answering. Use the number keys or your keyboard; Enter submits, Backspace deletes and Clear starts your entry again.
  4. Complete four Easy, four Medium and four Hard questions. A wrong answer does not end the run. Review each answer, then choose Next question.
  5. Replay the current question as a hint. The first authorisation uses one hint; further replays of that question in this run are free. You can always answer without a hint.
  6. Leaving, refreshing or hiding the page ends an unfinished run. Start a new run when you return.

Try an example

Imagine a stack with three cubes on the bottom and two resting above them. The total is five, including any bottom cube hidden behind another. Count the cubes, rather than the visible faces: one cube can show several faces as the board passes. You have three seconds to observe, then the stack leaves and you enter your answer without an answer countdown.

An approach to try

Count one layer at a time and keep a running total. Counting the front silhouette alone misses cubes at the back. Review the revealed answer before moving to the next question; a mistake does not end the twelve-question run. If you use a replay hint, compare your layer totals with what you see on the second pass.
