Rubik's Illusion (1989) by Matchbox - Magical Vintage Abstract Strategy Board Game Review - Cube

Episode 105
Attic Raiders Retro Reviews reflects upon Rubik's Illusion, which was released by Matchbox in 1989; a mind-bending abstract strategy game with links to the original Rubik's Cube.
From the manufacturers:
"A duel of excellence, where every move deceives the eye and the ILLUSION itself wins the game!"
"Rubik's Cube made what seemed impossible into reality. RUBIK'S ILLUSION makes what is real into an illusion, but the illusion becomes an integral part of the real game!"
"RUBIK'S ILLUSION is a game like no other game, it is a spectacular confrontation of minds to challenge the powers of sight, thought and visualisation."

Better than those live services mobile games. No pop up ads in the mirrors.

What a rabbit youʼve pulled out of your hat! Glad to see this game favorably reviewed - another 2‑player Iʼve had trouble getting to the table. 🙄 Another two‐player British release using mirrors to expand the playfield is InnerVision, from Wiggins Teape. If you have that one, let me know how it goes…! 😁

STILL waiting to get a hold of InnerVision...
