It is the same, but the fact that they have the same number of faces, edges and vertices is not conclusive. A rectangular prism (brick shape) also has the same numbers.

No, a square prism and a cube are not the same. A square prism has two square faces and four rectangular faces, while a cube has six square faces of equal size.
