3 otters3D Maze Ball, Brain Teaser Puzzle Ball for Boys Maze Sphere Game Education Toy for Gifts Classroom Prize

Honestly my kids just love these things to bits and this one was for my sons birthday. Total hit btw. Don't drop it though lol. It's fine for what it is, but definitely not designed for to much wear and tear.

We saw this at my son’s physically therapy office, he was always drawn to it, so we bought it. This has been so fun to watch him (almost 6) and adults play with it. It has helped with his coronation, attention span, and problem solving. It’s a great size, probably the size of a soccer ball, but it’s easy to carry around. I would have paid more for this, it’s a great gift for the price!

We played with this puzzle maze at the science museum and my 5 year old was immediately hooked. I was thrilled to find the same one here, and we’ve used it multiple times daily since we bought it a month ago. My son tends to give up on stuff that is too frustrating, but this was one thing he was determined to master—and now that he’s an expert, he still hasn’t lost interest. He loves to show off his maze skills to friends and family when they come over, and the grownups are just as challenged as the kids!

I got this for my 3 yr old because we have an "adult" one for us. This is much more manageable for him, and even his dad and I enjoyed doing it, even though we both were able to get through it within a couple of hours. It does feel cheaply made compared to the other one we have, so I'm not sure how long it will last. As of now though, it's a big hit.Update: after 1 week my 3 yr old can solve the cube. It's still a challenge, but I got the ball for him now too. This is GREAT for young kids who like their minds being challenged.

My 3 kids (ages 7,7, & 10) and their dad (me) all enjoy puzzle ball/mazes. We already own 4 and I am on the lookout for new versions that we can add to our collection. This ball looked attractive with 138 'new' steps and a bargain price under $20.Too bad it turned out to be a huge disappointment.First, While this puzzle ball boasts 138 'New' steps, much of the design is copied from the original Perplexus ball. You can see in the first photo how the starting block is identical. If you look past that, you can see that the center of the ball is the same spiral as the perplexus, and in front of that the same long run with a 'corregated' style slot. There are many other components that are copied identically. There are some original passages, but if you already own the original puzzle ball, then I estimate that 2/3 of this is a copy of that.Worse, the bargain price isn't just because they've copied so much, but they've also skimped on materials. In the second picture you can see how flimsy the outer plastic ball is. With light pressure, the shell bends under my fingers. I would not trust this ball to survive the drops and handling that my kids inflict on our other puzzle balls.And finally, worst of all, the build quality is so poor that I could not even complete the maze on the copy that was sent to me. In the third picture, you see the ball lodged against the edge of a bridge that it is supposed to pass under. The ball cannot pass under and it's not even close. It's impossible to complete this maze.Based on the first two observations, I might give this a two or three star rating and just warn potential buyers. But even at a bargain price, it makes no sense to buy a puzzle that cannot be completed. I would give zero stars if I could.

This is a really nicely made puzzle and it's really fun. I have parkinson's, and I'm finding that.It helps me concentrate on keeping my hands still.

It’s a fun maze that gets harder as you go. You can start from 3 different spots so if you fall off, you don’t have to start at the beginning. Unfortunately, after 2 months, one of the pieces inside broke / fell off…not really sure how cuz the outside isn’t broken. So now we can’t use it cuz this little cup piece is just floating around everywhere. Should be more durable on the inside.

Got this for my son and he hasn’t put it down since! He has adhd and it definitely keeps his attention.
