Easiest Way to Solve the Square-1!

There are many methods out there but this is the easiest way to solve the Square-1. There are mainly 2 algorithms and 1 algorithm for parity.

I said in the video that you need to know how to solve the regular Rubik's cube but if you know the basic movements + notations of the Square-1, you don't need to know how to solve the other puzzles!

0:00 - Intro

0:15 - Notations
"J-Perm" algorithm: /(0,3)/(0,-3)/(0,3)/(0,-3)/

STEP 1
2:37 - Turn Square-1 into a Cube
Shape algorithm: /(2,4)/(1,2)/(-3,-3)/
Fix center block: /(6,0)/(6,0)/

STEP 2
5:31 - Orient Corners
Make sure to always offset by 1 when doing a slice

STEP 3
6:28 - Orient Edges
M2 Algorithm: (1,0)/(-1,-1)/(0,1)
Orient Edges: (1,0)/(-3,0)/(-1,-1)/(3,1)/
Scenario 1: 6:58
Scenario 2: 7:28
Scenario 3: 8:05

STEP 4
8:42 - Permute Top layer
"J-Perm" algorithm: /(0,3)/(0,-3)/(0,3)/(0,-3)/
Switch top/bottom layers: /(6,6)/

STEP 5
9:35 - Permute Bottom layer

STEP 6
11:30 - Parity
Parity: /(-3,0)/(0,3)/(0,-3)/(0,3)/(2,0)/(0,2)/(-2,0)/(4,0)/(0,-2)/(0,2)/(-1,4)/(0,-3)/(0,3)

Fix center block AND flip top/bottom layers: /(6,0)/(0,6)/

Thanks for watching this video! 😊

I'm never scrambling my Square-1 again!

[Macattack-wccu]

my gratitude = 1 million u saved my butt from forever having a scramble sq-1 i can now confidently solve it

[iamachair]

this tutorial is amazing thank you so much. I still have not memorized parity but i am working on it :)

[jenneta.pelagio]

Oh finnaly solved my square 1 thank you😀

[thesparxeffect]

My friend let me have his solved square-1. That was 3 years ago, I still haven't unscrambled the puzzle and leave it solved.

[matthewaaron-soccer]

I am still learning it but it would be awesome to learn this completely

[jklbhill]

This is the best video of the other video to learn how to solve the Square one

[jklbhill]

Thank you you help solve my first Square-1

[scratchy]

Could you make a pdf or website version of this? I don't wanna have to go to YouTube every time.

[Lightning-_-bolt]

You help me get through half of the cube

12:39 i realized on that (-1, -4), i think it was supposed to be 4 instead of a negative 4 since u moved it clockwise. Thats why i messed up twice.

[aidencarbert]

Thanks, I thought this would be super comlicated but after this vid and some practice ive memorized all the algs and can do sub 3 minutes from 2 days of practice

[jcubes]

Thanks. I got a square one for Christmas and this tutorial makes it a lot easier.

[adnanmerchant]

A really helpful tutorial, thanks a ton Simon!!

[moniquescholte-mierau]

this is so helpful i just orderd one so i know how to now!!! thank you

[dolphinkidcubing]

My little packet thing that came with my cube was so confusing. This is such an easy tutorial. Thank u for making this

[akashgandhi]

Did you write the (1, 0)/(-3, 0)/(-1, -1)/(3, 1)/ algorithm wrong? For me, it only works with a zero at the end instead of a one.

[cxdestroyer]

Omg thanks so much I have finally solved it I subbed and checked out some of your other vids☺️

[dinocubing]

I ordered one! I will watch this video later on!

[advaywakhare]

Thank you very much Simon. You helped me to solve my SQUARE- 1
