Chapter 6: Finish the cube · Level 16 of 20

Level 16: Top corners: no headlights

Goal: Move the top corners when no side has headlights. 2 tasks · ★★★ = fewest moves.

Task 1 of 2

No headlights. Do the algorithm, put the new headlights at the back, and do it again.

Your cube, unfolded

Your moves

Algorithm

    Keyboard: U D L R F B turn a face, with Shift for the prime (U'). Y turns the whole cube. Backspace undoes.

    💡 Need a hint?

    No headlights anywhere: do the algorithm once from any side. Now you have headlights — put them at the back and do it again.

    What you learn here

    When no side shows headlights, two corners must swap across the diagonal. Doing the algorithm once from any side always makes a pair of headlights, and then you finish as in level 15.
