But, as I said at the beginning. Once you get over the hassle of setting up the board, and learn to live with some of the minor annoyances like having to constantly catch errant marbles as you play, it is a ton of fun to play. The phsyics-based nature of the game adds a lot of chaos to the gameplay. Just because a play worked on your last turn, doesn't necessarily mean it will work this turn. Sometimes mechanisms get a bit stuck, sometimes a ball that went left off a bounce last turn decides to go right this time, and the special effects can add some real strategic thinking to the game.

If you're like me and hoard all different kinds/colors of filament, it's also a great way to make use of those colors you never seem to be able to find a use for. I like to never use the same color scheme twice for any of these tiles, so I've really used practically every roll in my filament collection to churn out the tiles.

(4/5)
