Review - Perplexus Original

A fun toy arrived for review this week, a perplexus 
original.  This is a 3d maze, where the player guides a marble through the various turns and twists inside a large clear sphere.  The box says it is for children ages 6 and up.
The Pros:
  I really like the fact this game takes no batteries, improves hand eye coordination, and
helps build focus skills.  I think this would be a great toy to keep kids busy and help build skills while entertaining them.  I enjoyed the bright colors this is a very fun toy that catches your eye right away with it's colorful turns and barriers. 
The Cons:
I did not like how small the numbers to keep you on the correct path are.  They are the same color as the path and I struggled to see them as a went along the path.  

Overall I think this is a well designed toy and I enjoyed playing with it.  
You can connect with Perplexus on their facebook page, Twitter account, and on Youtube.
