The Megaminx ranks as one of the most difficult puzzles to solve, in terms of the sheer number of possible combinations.   However, many of the Rubik's Cube techniques are easily generalized to Megaminx's geometry.

Impossi-Ball

The Impossi-Ball is related to the Megaminx.  Even though it forms an icosahedral shape, it amounts to solving just the corners of the Megaminx.  Again, cube moves apply.

Alexander's Star strays even further off the beaten path-- it's not even a platonic solid when solved.  Yet it still somehow fits the magic puzzle category with its intersecting star-faces.  Solving this puzzle amounts to solving the edge pieces on Megaminx.

The Dogic is another dodecahedral puzzle.
