Solve the Mirror Cube like a 3×3 cube by colorless shape matching
Identify the center pieces and use them to define each face
Build the first layer cross by matching edge shapes to center heights
Insert first-layer corners by matching shape and position
Solve the middle layer edges using standard 3×3 edge insertion methods
Form the last-layer cross using 3×3 last-layer algorithms
Orient the last-layer corners using standard corner orientation algorithms
Permute the last-layer corners into the correct positions
Permute the last-layer edges into the correct positions
If pieces are misaligned by shape only, use the cube’s unique heights to confirm correct placement
Repeat standard 3×3 algorithms until all pieces are solved
Check that every face becomes a uniform rectangle shape when solved
