Technology has made toys become more and more sophisticated. However, there are some playthings out there that have gone largely untouched, like the Rubik's Cube. The puzzler has been around for ages, challenging the minds of both children and adults alike. Its humble shape and colorful design have been relatively unchanged since its inception.

The Rubik's TouchCube is going to mix the old with the new as the traditional Rubik's Cube merges with touchscreen technology. You can use your fingers to manipulate the blocks as you attempt to solve it, making gestures to indicate the direction you want it to go to.

And just because it's a tech toy, it has to come with new features. This one has a tutorial mode so you can finally solve the mystery of turning those multicolored sides into uniform panels. Also, the TouchCube allows you to save your current state of play so you can bang your head against the wall and then come back later.
