Rubik’s LED Revolution
Rubik’s Revolution contains at least six built-in games that feature light, sound and voice effects with numerous ways to play and multiple levels waiting to be unlocked. Ideal for puzzle lovers from 5 to 105, the new electronic cube offers not only individual play, but also exciting multiplayer gaming. Its six core games include: Light SpeedTM, Rapid RechargeTM, Pattern PanicTM, Cube CatcherTM, Code CrackerTM, and Multiplayer MadnessTM.
“Rubik’s Revolution is truly innovative. It’s rare that a follow-up can match or even surpass the original in respect to creativity, game play, and fun, but Techno Source has developed a product that achieves this feat,” says Jim Silver, editor-in-chief of Toy Wishes magazine. “They’ve kept the key ingredients in that it’s simple to play, but extremely challenging. Anyone with a competitive streak simply won’t be able to put it down.”

LoopScape: Playing Around Cylindrical LED Screen
LoopScape, by Ryota Kuwakubo, is a game for 2 players with wireless controllers. It is a very classic shooting game. But instead of battling on a flat screen, you have to run around the cylindrical LED screen to follow your spaceship. Another consequence of having a 360° is that once your missile is fired, it will fly round and round until it hits something: hopefully it will hit your opponent’s rocket but you might also get shot down by your own missile if the enemy manages to avoid it.
LoopScape –together with Unreflective Mirror, by Masaki Fujihata, A-Volve by Sommerer/Mignonneau, FragMental by exonemo, and works by five other artists– is part of the Art & Technology Zone, an exhibition area where one can investigate the dialogue between technology and art. The show opens on June 6 and runs until September 9, at ICC, Tokyo.
NTT is also hosting the lovely Kodama installation by Hisako Kroiden Yamakawa.
