Don't you like pure magic squares and (hyper)cubes (any more)? Maybe you like the magic specials:

• Why using one magic sum? You can also use different (sequencial) magic sums for each row/column/diagonal in the "anti-magic square"

• Why using sequencial numbers in the magic square? Use reversible numbers to produce a "reversible magic square" or prime numbers to produce a "magic prime square"

• Or use numbers presented like this  , which can be put upside down or mirrored horizontally or vertically in the "IXOHOXI magic square"

• Why using different numbers in the magic square? Use domino tiles to produce a "domino magic square"

• Why adding numbers to get the magic sum? Multiply the numbers to get the magic sum in the "Multiplication magic square"

• Why using squares? Use 3/5/6/7 angles to produce a "magic 3/5/6/7 angle"

• Why must all rows and columns have the same lenght? Use rows and columns with diffent lenghts in the "magic hexagon"

• Why using rows and columns? Produce a "magic star and magic circle"

• See the connexion beween numbers and words in the "alfa-magic square"

• Why using numbers or words? Produce (just like Lee swallows did) a "geomagic square"

•  Is this a bridge too far? Than keep it visual but visual by numbers with "photo magic square" or Polyomino magic square
