It’s a simple cube toy if you can nail one of the 43.2 quintillion combinations. Race against the clock and get cracking in the first ever Rubik’s Cube challenge at City Centre Sharjah and City Centre Ajman this Back to School season.

From August 15 until September 15, speedcubers can test their speed, concentration and eye-hand coordination in a series of Rubik’s Cube challenges daily at the malls to win amazing prizes.

At City Centre Sharjah, step up on the competition stage and take your place on the hot seat for a friendly match with other competitors and friends to win daily. Participants at City Centre Sharjah can also register for the finale, which will be held in collaboration with the Word Cube Association. The three participants who manage to crack the Rubik’s Cube in the shortest time possible will be declared winners and receive prizes, a certificate and medal from the association.

At City Centre Ajman, beat the clock, and your opponents, to complete the coloured face of the oversized Rubik’s Cube. Players must complete their assigned cube in the specified colour using the cubes provided. Each cube only has two colours, so you must choose wisely!

“Back to School is the perfect season to challenge children with engaging puzzles that keep the mind sharp and improve problem-solving skills. After the huge success of interactive competitions like ‘Spelling Bee’ and ‘Movie Trivia’ games in the previous Back to School seasons, we wanted to take it a step further with the Rubik’s Cube challenge, which is a trending game among teenagers and adults. We are excited to invite families to join us at City Centre Sharjah and City Centre Ajman as we create more great moments for our customers” said Abdullah Alblooshi, Mall Manager, City Centres in the Northern Emirates.

Shoppers who spend AED 200 at either of these two City Centres can also enter a draw to win the brand-new Toyota RAV 4 GX this Back to School season, until September 15.
