Melty C is the third of a series of four Melted Cube designs proposed by Bram Cohen. Whereas the six axes in a regular Rubik's Cube are at 90 degrees, they are at 85 degrees in de Melted Cubes. The six axes of Melty C can be described as follows. Take two axes and place them at 85 degrees. Place a third axis that is at 85 degrees with the first two. Place a fourth axis at 85 degrees with the first and third. Place a fifth axis at 85 degrees with the second and third. Place a sixth axis at 85 degrees with the fourth and fifth.
The result is an interesting puzzle, that can be fully scrambled according some definitions, but not according to other.
Melty C has only mirror symmetry.
