Those who have found themselves in way over their heads with the original [Rubik's Cube](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/hello-kitty-rubiks) might want to try the 'Boob Cube' brain teaser puzzle to start feeling like themselves again.

The 'Boob Cube' is a logic puzzle that can be twisted and turned in order to match up the colored panels on the cube. However, the device only features the ability to turn and twist one way; this means solving the puzzle takes a few simple turns to achieve.

The 'Boob Cube' is a fantastically simple piece of office decor that is great to be utilized as a toy to tinker with while on the phone or as a [gag gift](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/cake-puzzle). The 'Boob Cube' brain teaser puzzle comes with a solution manual in case you get stuck.
