Gigaminx (Twisty Puzzle) The Gigaminx, first mass produced in 2006 by Cube4You is a five-layered, twelve-sided twisty puzzle. It is similar to the megaminx, but has an extra layer on each side, similiar to a 5x5 Rubik's cube. The Gigaminx can be solved using the reduction method to pair the centers and edges, and then solving the rest like you would a megaminx.
