 Too difficult for children!Dec 21, 2004
By Shelley C. Sayre
I bought this toy for my boys a few years ago because they had enjoyed playing with a marble run game at a friend's house. I thought this toy bould be even better since it was wood instead of plastic. I was wrong! The toy is difficult to balance just right so that the marble will go through it. The giraffe and bell pieces also broke very quickly. It is better to stick with wood for blocks and plastic for marble mazes!

Horrible design!Dec 23, 2004
By Cool parent
I bought this toy for my 4-year-old son for his "big" Christmas present. He loves marbles and the Marbleworks toys, so I thought this would be a great gift. Better, even, because it's wood. I was so wrong! The monkeys don't work, and it's next to impossible to get the marbles to go though things without them jumping onto the ground. A very bad design. Thankfully the local toy store where I bought it is exchanging it.

Couldn't agree moreDec 27, 2005
By pdxrocket
I was going to write up a review after I purchased this for my 3.5 year old son for Christmas. When I got here and read everyone elses "spot on" reviews of the toy, I knew I didn't need to say anything more. This toy is exactly like everyone else says; extremely difficult to get working and the balancing act one must achieve is beyond belief.
I told my son I would return it to Santa's Workshop and get him a toy that worked properly.

the only maze in this toy, is it is amazing anyone buy itDec 27, 2005
By sue s
bought this toy for xmas, the marbles do not move well thru the pieces and trying to balance the many wood pieces without it all collapsing is very hard. Part of the picture on the puzzle does not show how the back of maze is built. After it being knocked down so easily after several attempts, i gave up... Waste of money for expensive toy

 5 stars but NEED INSTRUCTIONSFeb 09, 2007
By Alice
"new mom"
I agree with the other users that left to your own devices the marble maze is a challenge to most everyone. The thing that makes a difference is the INSTRUCTIONS that seem to be left out when packed from the boxes. At least mine didn't include one and I was only clued into its existence by the contents list printed on the box. I was going to call Alex Toys, the manufacterer, but found them posted on their website (simply do a search for 'Jungle Marble Maze'). All it is is a diagram of 3 different configurations, but it really makes a world of difference. By the time you've figured out how to put together one, you realize the basic idea and can guide your child as well. Without it, it's really quite frustrating for most children and adults.
