Hello everyone!
I really liked the 4D 2x2x2x2x2 hypercube and decided to make a mathematical model of 4D 2x2x2x2. I got two nested cuboctahedrons. It would be very interesting to see the puzzle in this form.
For better understanding, I recorded a video

There exists a game on i-pode (and NOT on androide) with the name "tesseract".
It's a virtual version of the rubic 3x3x3x3 with only the 32 edges (3color).
It's a very fine game with nice handling.
 
If in this game you imagine to do the truncation operation (as for the cubooctahedron on the cube)
you find the 4colored nested tetrahedra of Eugene !
 
Kind regards
Ed

Hi  ed.baumann  ! The program MPUlt has the ability to create your own puzzles. I haven't figured out how to do it yet, but the task is interesting
