Hi. I have a question on how to complete my Rubik’s Revenge. I’ll paint the picture. U face-yellow; L-blue; R-green; F-red; and B-orange. 4 sides are complete, but I have 2 edges that are switched (green is in red, and red is in green). I can solve my Rubik’s Cube when I’m in this position, but for whatever reason, I cannot solve my Rubik’s Revenge. Can anyone help?

Thanks,
Mark

Well, Mark, you have one interesting predicament. I won’t bother you with a bunch of stupid Rubik’s Cube jargon, although I am right now, I am not sure how to complete your situation. I am more the expert on the Rubik’s Cube original, 3×3x3. It seems as if your two edges just need to be switched using an algorithm. I have no such algorithm, although I wish I did. I would search the web, using the new tool on the website, for Rubik’s Cube 4×4x4 Revenge Algorithm Switching to Edges. That may be better suited. Sorry, I could not help more.

Hopefully this helped. Please leave a comment back to assure you got my response.
