Quick Take: I really enjoy the 1 player logic puzzle games and this one is particularly well done. The components are sturdy and easy to work with. The game itself is like a puzzle version of marble run and I don't know any kid who doesn't love a marble run so it has a wide appeal. And with any logic game, it's fine to play single player but it's often even more fun to work through the puzzles with a parent or grandparent.
How to Play: There are 60 cards with varying levels of difficulty, giving you a number of pieces to place on specific places on the board and a number of pieces to add in order to get the marble from the beginning of the maze to the end target.
Variations: The cards have the solutions on the back, these solutions can be used as a helpful hint or two for a child who is stuck on one of the challenges. With younger kids it can be enough of a challenge and quite fun to build based on the solution sides of the cards.
