When you play with virtually any of the cubes out there, you always know where a facelet will fit just by looking at the cube. You may not know how to bring it there, but yellow goes on yellow.

For the past 2 years we’ve been working to create a unique, astonishing new cube that undermines this comfort. Are you ready to accept the challenge?

The Afterlife Cube is just blank.

There’s no way to know where each facelet will fit! The tile will light up only when it’s on the right face. 

That’s a whole new way to cube, which starts from fumbling around and ends up requiring a great cubing discipline, some centers orientation control, and quite a good memory.

Hands-on the idea looks even brighter!

Starting from its invention in 1974, the cube has been a great success among people of all ages, capturing minds and hearts.

Later on, dozens of new inventors tried to design new shapes and layouts around the traditional cube, and today’s the market is plenty of puzzles that go well beyond a cube: tetrahedra, dodecahedra, smart cubes, spheres, amorphous twisty puzzles… but at the end of the day they’re just multiple solutions of the same equation: yellow still goes on yellow!

What if it wasn’t the case anymore?

We spent 2 years imagining and designing the real next level, starting right from this principle: if you’re looking for a new challenge, it’s not a matter of new shapes. It’s a matter of a brand new cubing experience!

The Afterlife Cube brings you there: a whole new way to cube.

The Afterlife Cube is brought to you by MVented, an Italian startup focused on the development of innovative smart toys. 

Our team includes physicists, aeronautical engineers, designers, math enthusiasts. We spent the last fifteen years developing, manufacturing and selling high tech systems: we have the required technical expertise when it comes to putting electronics into smart devices.

We had to face many difficulties, at the limit of seeming impossible, but we always figured out a way to overcome the obstacle. The technology now is ready, and the prototypes work effectively and flawlessly. However, we still need your help to make it a cost effective product and mass produce it. This is why we crowdfunded the project on Kickstarter, and we’re now collecting some extra pre-orders here on Indiegogo!

We wanted it breathtaking, and we think it is. We’d want it cheap too, but there’s a lot of complex electronic components inside. We can’t head to a lower target price, but we have a couple of gifts for you under our belts, ready to be released if there will be truly many of us. We’re working hard on this very point, help us grow and stay tuned!

Our funding goal on Kickstarter was designed to let us cover the production line setup costs for the Afterlife Cube, which are ridiculously high. The goal was met, and we’re not collecting some extra pre-order via this Indiegogo campaign. But, should there be truly many of us, allowing to reach and double our former funding goal, we’d be able to offer something more to everybody. Do you remember of the extra levels featured on Kickstarter? Stay tuned! 😉

We’ll do our best to fit the schedule. However, the semiconductors crisis might affect our suppliers’ timing, and the worldwide logistics crisis might not help as well. 

We’ll keep you posted at every step. Really, at every single step we’ll take towards getting the Afterlife Cube into your hands.
