Untitled[edit]
There is also a variant of tetrahedral Rubik's cube which has only 4 faces on each side, and this variant doesn't seem to be mentioned here on Wikipedia. Samohyl Jan 21:00, 26 January 2007 (UTC)
It seems to me like that variant would be solved in a maximum of 4 turns by a severely retarded eggplant. Provided that the eggplant had hands.
- Actually, it's quite difficult - I found it more difficult than 2x2 Rubik's cube. The reason is that it seems to me you need to go through several non-tetrahedral shapes in order to solve it (ie. primitive operations that start and end as tetrahedron are not enough).

- I created the Pyramorphix article, which is the puzzle you are describing. Hellbus 02:32, 14 April 2007 (UTC)
- Thanks. Samohyl Jan 13:46, 14 April 2007 (UTC)
variations[edit]
there are variations
junior pyraminx: a trivial "puzzle" that only has the tip layer and the bottom layer. tetraminx: the corners are cut off, shown on this article jing's pyraminx: the tip layer is cut off and then extended up so the tips don't turn and the cuts are a bit deeper, creating a center. gear pyraminx: a pyraminx with gears, related to the gear cube master pyraminx: a "4x4" version professor pyraminx: a "5x5" version and so forth (e.g. royal pyraminx/oblate pyraminx (6x6), emperor pyraminx (7x7), ect.) — Preceding unsigned comment added by 99.185.3.0 (talk) 19:56, 10 November 2013 (UTC)
What solid is the Tetraminx?[edit]
I know it's a truncated tetrahedron (three hexagons and one triangle meet at each vertex), but does it have a name other than "truncated tetrahedron"? — 90.219.46.138 (talk) 12:31, 13 August 2017 (UTC)
- Well, the wikipedia-article is called Truncated tetrahedron, so I doubt there's a different name for it. Judith Sunrise (talk) 14:59, 9 March 2018 (UTC)

Gods number[edit]
Just asking what is the god’s number Zeeshan7tfInd (talk) 04:08, 11 October 2019 (UTC)
- 11, according to Jaap Sherhuis, or 15 if you include tips. Judith Sunrise (talk) 12:23, 11 October 2019 (UTC)
