Unboxing
The Perplexus ball is wrapped in a thick/cardboard paper packaging. Once this is broken and removed you are ready to play. No setup and no fuss.
The Playtime Experience
Perplexus is a game of patience and skill. The shape is round and the 99 obstacles inside are a maze of colors and ramps. They are number so you can see there really are 99 paths for that little metal ball to take. The obstacles follow every direction you can imagine so the sphere design comes in handy as you maneuver the whole unity to direct the marble through the maze.
Things I Liked
I really like that each of the obstacles are numbered so show there really are 99 paths to take.
Things I Didn't Like
I don’t really dislike anything about this toy but the whole unit is a bit larger in size than is comfortable to hold on to. It makes maneuvering it just a little more awkward than I would prefer.
Appropriate Ages
This toy is recommended for players 6 and older.
Final Note
Aside from my issues with the toy being a little on the large side, I actually really like this toy. The Perplexus Original is a great travel game that will have you scratching your head and trying your patience to get the marble through all 99 obstacles!

MomentumS High Speed Fidget Spinner
This summer I am working at trialing and playing with the most unique fidget spinners I can find. This week I played with the MomentumS High Speed Fidget Spinner in black. This fidget spinner is well made, heavy, fast and adorable because of its miniature size!
