Manoeuvre the ball bearing around this maze by carefully tilting the handset, negotiating hairpin bends, spiral paths & inclining ramps without dropping through any of the holes. That in itself is addictive enough, but the handset also

Includes::
a stopwatch & plays fast-paced music to increase tension. Once the ball-bearing reaches the finish point, it activates a light-sensitive switch & the time is recorded; as shorter times are achieved the number is replaced, so you'll soon find that just completing the maze isn't enough, especially when friends want a go!

Mathematical Curiosities

This collection of mysterious mathematical devices is our own creation and something we've sold successfully for years, but the mathematical anomalies exploited are still relatively unknown and remain always intriguing. We've recently repackaged (beautifully, even if we do say so ourselves) and added a clever new set of dice to the original components - all of which deserve further explanation: Addition Dice:- Five special dice showing three digit numbers on each face are thrown to choose five random numbers. Adding these numbers together would normally take a few minutes or require the help of a calculator, but a clever technique allows the user to perform the maths in seconds. Magic Calculator:- The four square sticks are laid side by side to form rows of four digit numbers. As with
the Addition Dice above, the sum of any combination of these figures can be calculated in seconds using a secret technique. Magic Number Cards / Think of a Number Cards:- Two sets of special cards that use different mathematical anomalies, allowing the user to determine numbers that have been secretly chosen by a second person.
