Complete disappointment, 26. Februar 2008

This book is an utterly failed attempt for creating a new esotheric strand. While employing a few - very easily seen through - principles of "cold reading", the book lacks in all other aspects which are crucial for such an endeavour: There is no aesthetic basis or even just logic for the five symbolic representations of human interest areas. The objects are almost randomly chosen and sound more like one of those "which one does not fit the category" IQ tests. The supposedly re-enforcing background story ("mystic" setting along the danube's banks in Eastern Europe) will cause just irritation with anybody who has seen the river or the definitely un-mystic sqallor of the area. If you want to suspend your own disbelief (or somebody else's) go for a more tried and time tested branch of esotherics like palmistry or astrology which promise a minimum plausibility for those who like that kind of stuff.

       very good book for flirting, 2. Januar 2002

I use the cube during flirting with women. After the initial phrases you start to cube her and get a wonderfull connection to her. Or you find that she has a strange personality and is not the right women for you. The women love it when you cube them! Because you are interested in the most important person for this women. Herself! They are always talking a lot about their inner live after cubing and you get at least her phone number...

I played The Cube before I read the book. Although it was an arresting experience when I played it, this book helped me analyze my visions and added a lot to the enjoyment and insight. As you can only play The Cube ONCE, it's truly a phenomena to be shared. When done properly, playing The Cube is an amazing experience! I highly advise buying this book!

      Amazingly accurate but you can't play it twice., 3. Januar 2000

You know those stupid psychological tests/games that you get via e-mail? arent those so stupid? and totally inaccurate? Well the CUBE was so frighteningly dead-on and intelligently deep that it puts all those to shame. You can psychoanalyze yourself in 5 questions that are really fun--or you can take a 200-question-long Kinsey Personality Test. Which is more sociable and enjoyable? I highly recommend this book as an ice-breaker and slumber parties and "bonding" activities of that sort. The only problem IMHO is that once you've played the Cube, that's it. Fini. The End. It's a one-time-use-only thing. It's of no logic to take a personality test twice unless you're schizophrenic. I found the book very entertaining and amazingly accurate on the first read, but after that it's useless. Buy this book if you have LOTS of friends, because no one can play it twice. (well you can play it twice but it's not fun the 2nd time; it's just completely redundant). Right now it's collecting dust so I am going to give it to my younger sister, who will have screaming fun with her sorority sisters over it. But again, once they've played the "Cube", no more. Just read it once and pass it on.

       Intensely accurate! Very creepy!, 6. November 1999

I got "cubed" last night. The most intensely accurate description I've ever heard of myself and my life, moreso even than the one I'll admit to myself! The person who "cubed" me didn't clue me in to what was going on until after I'd answered all the questions; the clueing in gave me goose flesh for at least a half hour. Buy it immediately: you'll be amazed!
