As if this [classic puzzle](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/orly-x-rubiks) wasn’t hard enough already, they had to go and add a bunch of symbols I’m not even familiar with. I was just getting the hang of plain colors. The [Google](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/squid-game-1) [Rubik](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/rubiks-run)’s Cube is, more than anything, a testament to the company’s vast empire.

The fact that they are able to fill up six sides with different domains and websites means they’re doing something right. Rather than try my hand at the puzzle box, I think I’ll just sit back and admire their complete domination of the digital world. You are welcome to try out the Google Rubik’s Cube though.
