Perplexus is a maze game where players must maneuver a small marble around challenging barriers inside a transparent sphere. You need to select which track you would like to attempt and then must work with gravity and carefully shift, flip, and twist the sphere to guide the marble.
This is a cool 3-dimensional maze that is easy to get started and hard to finish. There are 100 stations along the way, including some difficult topsy-turvy turns. There are many ways to play, but if you can stay on track till the end, consider yourself a champ! All ages can get into it; my 3-year-old has fun trying to keep the ball on the track. Once you pick it up, you don’t want to stop. I just keep telling myself, just one more try, I know I can get it. My older kids like attempting to do it too. I think this game is great, plus it helps with hand-eye coordination. I am glad I had the chance to try this out.

I could see this keeping kids busy. Instead of wanting to watch TV or sit around I can see kids wanting to play with. I con also see families needing more than 1.
