Gravity Maze - The Falling Marble Logic Game Product Review



Full Disclosure: I received products free of charge for the purpose of providing a review. My opinions are completely my own based on my experience.


I must say that games have come a long way since I was a kid. So I'm amazed at all of the game options that we have today. Check out the Thinkfun Gravity Maze. This game is a game of logic. And it will definitely have you thinking.

Here is a little product description of Gavity Maze:

This gravity powered logic maze is sure to put your visual perception and reasoning skills to the test. The towers can be arranged in a wide variety of visually stimulating structures but, for each challenge, you’ll have to think carefully to build a path that will carry your marble to the Target Tower.
• Ages 8 to adult
Includes:
• Game Grid 
• 9 Building Towers 
• Target Tower 
• 3 Marbles 
• 60 Challenge Cards (Beginner to Expert) with Solutions 
• Instructions 


Although this game is for ages 8 and up, Lil Man still enjoyed it. I of course helped him with the set up, but he enjoyed putting the marble in the game piece and helping me try to figure out how to place the pieces.

The concept behind the game is really simple. You draw a card and use that card to build your tower.

I struggled with this game at first because, well, I don't think logically ha. I have a difficult time with following visual instructions without a demonstration. Hubby caught on much faster than I did. And this game is somewhat addictive. Once we started playing we wanted to play for awhile. It was a lot of fun. And the more we played the better I got at following the visual cards to complete the game. In my opinion, I think this game would help strengthen those (like me) who learn better by demonstration. This was a fun way to encourage me to think logically from just visual cues.

I like the fact that you are having to think to solve the puzzles. This is not just a mindless game or a game of chance.

If you enjoy challenges and fun games, the Thinkfun Gravity Maze is a game that you will want to check out.


I received one or more of the products mentioned above for free using Tomoson.com. Regardless, I only recommend products or services I use personally and believe will be good for my readers.

2 Weeks Post Mohs Surgery

May 26, 2021 3:40pm  Finally, the phone call that I'd been waiting on. It was the Medical Center. ( Finally, we can schedule my surgery. ) She tells me who she is, and then tells me that she has a cancellation for tomorrow. ( Me stammering... )  "Ok, but I was thinking the end of June."   Then I hear "We just had a moment to look at your file. We really don't think that you should wait. We really think you should come in tomorrow at 8:15am" ( Me stammering again ) "Ok, I'll be there."  Wait, what? My mind is all over the place. I'm supposed to work. How am I going to get our son to school? Will my husband be able to go with me on such short notice. I expected this to be the end of June, not tomorrow. I'm not prepared! I was overcome with emotion.  May 26, 2021 Surgery Day I woke up at 1am with a horrible headache. By the time we arrived at the surgery center, I was definitely a bundle of nerves. I got checked in, went through the usual ...

Feel All the Feels Then Deal

Not what I expected when the phone rang. It was a routine dermatology appointment.  "Do you have any concerns?" “Yes, a small spot on my face. It comes and goes. Two weeks ago it had disappeared (again). So I'm actually glad that it’s back.”  It was the size of a pin head. It was teeny tiny. A nuisance, but not something that really seemed to bother me. “I suspect that it’s skin cancer.”  “So, we just burn if off, right?” “No, it needs to be cut out and sent to the lab.” I was not prepared for this. It’s on my lip! She’s going to cut a hole in my lip! She warns me that the shot is going to hurt and possibly a lot. She tells me this several times. (I’m thinking surely it can’t be that bad.)  I was wrong.  It hurt.  A lot.  I’m creeped out at the thoughts of her taking a chunk off of my face at the top of my lip. I’m even more creeped out as she tells me she’s going to burn it to stop the bleeding. Time and time again I hear the sizzle and the smell is n...

It's Been a Hot Minute

It's been a hot minute since I've written anything.... over a year. Between being a mom, full time student, and a substitute teacher during a pandemic, writing hasn't been a priority. More than once,  I've felt like I was in survival mode with classes. I didn't expect early block  to be so intense.  I admit that I broke down and cried several times this semester with feeling overwhelmed. But, I endured until the end, and I got straight A's for the semester. I'm proud of myself that I didn't give up. I am enrolled in 2 summer class, and 4 fall classes and studying for standardized tests that I must pass before I can begin my student internship.  I will be close to 50 when I graduate. Am I too old to do this? Who starts a career at 50????? I guess I do. I don't know what's going to happen when I graduate. I do know that I am enjoying the course work, and I'm enjoying being able to put what I have learned into practice as a substitute.  This sch...
