I think it is called a “Smart Maze”. It is a variation of a Rubik’s cube, but every square contains a section of a track and the purpose is to move a small steel ball from the beginning to the end square by twisting the cube and making a track. I have seen it online…but only in videos put out by very iffy companies. Where can I actually find this toy?

Is it the Rubik’s Perplexus Hybrid ?

No…but this is much better than the one I was looking for, so thank you! By the way, when I plugged that name into Amazon Prime, the Smart Maze I was originally asking about also popped up.
