This 4x4x4 magic cube has the following magic features:

  • the 4 rows, the 4 columns and the 2 diagonals in each level give the magic sum of 130;
  • the 16 pilars give the magic sum of 130;
  • the 16 diagonals through the 4 levels give the magic sum of 130;
  • the sum of the tridiagonals is 100, 120 140 respectively 160 (instead of 130).
