Gear Ball = a Rubik's cube in spherical form
Gear Ball is crazy tricky. The simplest way to think of it is as a Rubik's cube morphed into spherical form.
Your goal, just like a Rubik's cube, is to twist and turn the ball until you've formed six sold faces of color. But don't forget to correctly position and align the black bordered pieces, too! And unlike the Rubik's cube's highly delineated shape, the Gear Ball's spherical body and geared pieces makes it more difficult to keep track of your place on the puzzle.
Simply put, the Gear Ball is tough enough to melt your brain into goo.
Solve the Gear Ball by correctly aligning the colors, borders, and gears on all six "sides".
