The puzzle is similar to the [[Rubik's Cube]] in that the objective is to manipulate the puzzle until all sides are uniform in colour. The puzzle itself forms a [[triangular pyramid]], so that there are four sides and colours.

In the solved state, the four pieces with three colours must lie on the end points of the pyramid.
