Subject: Help with a hand-held game/toy

Written By: Creatrix on 06/17/13 at 12:28 am

(Man, I'm glad I found this forum...) I had a toy in the early 70s that was a clear plastic cube with a marble in it. It was kind of like this modern equivalent, only better constructed, and it wasn't a money maze.

The object was to turn and tilt the cube to get the marble from the top level and corner to the bottom level and corner. I'd kill to get my hands on one of these again, but they seem to have disappeared. Anyone seen one?

My older brother had one. I think I was finally able to get the ball to come out, but those marble games drive me nuts.

Was it a easy or hard game?  ???
