Embark on a hands-on, space-themed adventure with this mind-bending three-dimensional maze that you build yourself! Engineer a gravity-driven labyrinth that doubles as a pretend spacecraft control system. Your mission? To successfully guide a small marble through the system’s tubes from start to finish, navigating obstacles along the way.
Construct three unique modules that click into the maze’s spherical base, and use the two handles with thumb wheels to rotate and tilt the maze across multiple axes. A launcher sends your marble into “orbit,” and then you must carefully maneuver your maze to steer the marble through the course. Reach the maze’s finish — the spacecraft’s “Mission Capsule” — to succeed. But watch out: if it falls to the bottom of the maze instead, you’ll have to reattempt your mission. Swap out the modules to introduce new challenges.
As you build, play, and experiment, you’ll explore gravity, motion, and balance, while sharpening spatial thinking skills, hand-eye coordination, and dexterity. The different modules offer varying levels of difficulty, making this one-of-a-kind maze fun for kids and adults of all ages! Easy to play, but difficult to master; once you pick it up, you’ll want to see this mission through.
