'''The Cube''' is a canned cold-reading routine that dominated mid-2000s club pickup: you ask her to picture a cube, a ladder, a horse, flowers, a storm, then "read" her answers as personality. It is the type case of '''[[routine game]]'''.<ref name="game">{{cite book |last=Strauss |first=Neil |title=The Game: Penetrating the Secret Society of Pickup Artists |publisher=ReganBooks |year=2005 |isbn=0-06-055473-8}}</ref><ref name="mm">{{cite book |last=von Markovik |first=Erik |title=The Mystery Method: How to Get Beautiful Women Into Bed |publisher=St. Martin's Press |year=2007 |isbn=978-0-312-36011-5}}</ref><br />

[[Neil Strauss]]'s ''The Game'' spread it. Later schools kept the idea of a structured conversation and dumped the props. This wiki's gold standard does not start beginners on the Cube.<br />
<br />
== Method ==<br />
House method is [[direct game]] plus [[calibration]]. The Cube is history: a way 2000s students occupied eight minutes when they could not talk. If you can talk, you do not need a cube.<br />
<br />
== Other schools ==<br />
Mystery-era: run it after the open, before kino. London daygame: no. Girls Chase: no.<br />
<br />
== Failure mode ==<br />
Running it on a woman who is already hooked. That is [[over-gaming]]. Running it as if you invented psychology. That is cringe.<br />
