Fold the grid into a cube, and then fill each row with the digits 1-8. Cells separated by a white dot are consecutive, and cells separated by a black dot have a ratio of 1:2. All possibly dots are given, including between different faces of the cube.
Play on Penpa (use blue or green for answer check):
Normal layout: [clean] [with helpers]
Alternate layout: [clean] [with helpers]
Lösungscode: Row A followed by Row B (left to right on the unfolded cube)

@Gliperal The "Neu"-icon maybe is not the right one. Check id=0000AO (also id=0000AP and id=0000AS).

@Luigi Your comment reminds me, that "Kropkiwürfel 3" is still unsolved by myself.

Great idea and puzzle! My thoughts: Odd numbered cubes, like 3x3x3 & 5x5x5 do not use numbers efficiently - check puzzle 0004OQ for 12-digit one. I think next efficient cube is 4x4x4 with 16 numbers but it will likely be too challenging to solve and have fun while solving ..

That really reminds me of my "Kropkiwürfel" long in the past.

Place the digits 1-9 on each cube face such that every row has exactly 3 different repeated digits, perhaps?

@CHalb A 3x3 with 12 digits runs into some interesting problems, actually. There are 54 cells total, so one of the 12 digits must appear at least 5 times. But since every cell is part of two rows, and there are only 9 rows total, it would have to repeat in one of the rows.

Great! I really appreciate authors daring to enter the 3rd dimension in puzzles. The small size is for the start very good and the puzzle well done. A bigger one with numbers 1 to 12 would be much more difficult to handle, but I'd really like to give it a try (as solver at the moment, not as author ;-) ).

Tested this one and had great fun exploring the logic behind it.
