The graphic novel is excellent. It sets the stage perfectly for each of the challenges in the book. The progression of the challenges starts off easy and eases up in difficulty at a reasonable pace. The box has inserts that store all the pieces like an organized tool box, which I find both convenient and impressive. Each piece has its own molded spot for storage, which makes it easy to pick up and play and then put away.
I have a 9 and 6 year old. People told me that Turing Tumble looked too complicated for our 9 year old. We have completed the first 15 challenges. My 9 year old was able to intuitively figure out the solutions by working out what happens when either the Blue or Red ball is released. I just sat back and let him figure out what pieces go where.
Excellent product. Amazing packaging. Easy initial setup. Love it!
Made the loading of the marbles much easier
Awesome product! Kids and adults stay entertained. It's easy to use with and without the instructions.
Definitely a helpful addition to the Turing Tumble!

他の方のレビューで届かないというものがあり、かなり躊躇って悩んでいたのですが、意を決して注文。4日後に届きました。
書いてある通りに組み立てて、順に問題(チャレンジ)に取り組みました。悩むものもあり、その試行錯誤が私は面白いです。なかなかできないチャレンジがあり、四苦八苦して完成させた後に、答えが載っていることに気づきました。
子どももチャレンジ1から順にやっています。
大きさをあまり想像していなくて、思ったよりも大きかったです。また、ボール(玉)が小さく転がりやすいので、入っていた箱に入れてやっています。
The gift was engaging and provided hours of entertainment for my 8 year nephew who is gifted in areas life math and science.
Hi Suzette, that's not actually our product, but I'm sorry that it didn't work!
This is one of our few toys that my kids go back to. It definitely stretches their brains with the engaging challenges. At first, my 18 year old hogged this gift given to his 7 and 9 year old brothers, which was very fun to watch as he figured out the more advanced challenges. I may try to convince the local library to put away all their new iPads used at �Tech Tuesday� (are there any parents left out there who actually want their kids to have MORE screen time?) and to buy a set of these instead.
My Grandson received Turing Tumble for Christmas, and when I saw how excited my Son-in-law was to try it, I decided to buy one for his birthday. He is loving it and is up to challenge 22. It is very well made and makes learning fun.
I brought this to some college events my company had a booth at, and our booth was the most visited/most popular because of Turing Tumble! It's fun for all ages.
Halfway through the puzzle book, this game is amazing. As an electronic engineer, it’s so fascinating to see how how computer chip works through mechanical parts. Great idea!!The balls might be a little too smal, specifically when someone bump the board and all balls fall …
My five-year-old calls this the coolest thing ever! Turing Tumble presents mechanical process of computers in a visual but screen-free way. It’s a puzzle, a learning experience, and marvellous programming class with zero battery / electronics. Thank you Turing Tumble for sending this awesome set in exchange for honest review!
Why I love ❤️ this game: (1) The concept and the ingenious challenges make this “toy” a timeless piece that can be played by kids and adults. Turing Tumble shows us how computer works in visual, non-abstract way. Using red and blue marbles, different bits and pieces, booklet with 60 challenges, a white “computer” board with removable stands, we watch how this clever device generates patterns, solves “problems”, “pre-programs” outcomes. First, arrange the different components according to selected puzzle; next, plan your path using specified parts to complete an “objective” (create a pattern of “blue, red, blue, red”; intercept the 4th blue ball etc). The solutions revealed through running marbles are super satisfying to watch.
(2) The booklet combines Japanese-manga feel sci-fi into the challenges; the level of difficulties increases gradually. I love that the booklet takes time to explain the purpose of each component, with clear illustrations accompanying the texts. The instructions, puzzles and storyline interweave seamlessly. Make sure you involve your kids in the initial set up of the board to give a clear idea of how each distinct pieces interlink.
(3) Each solid piece serves different purposes; the ramp directs ball to a pre-planned direction, crossover piece allows ball to come out from opposite exit, bit sends a ball to one direction and swings the next ball to another; an interceptor captures a ball, and gears create mind-boggling outcomes.
(4) We LOVE that each component has its special pocket in the storage box. It’s organised and neat!
The only shortcoming is that the balls are difficult to be retrieved from the board (we wish there were a removable ball catcher tray at the bottom.)
Got it for my 9yo granddaughter; she stared at it for about 3 minutes as though wondering what on earth possessed me to give her something so weird. But the moment she started the first puzzle she was enraptured and charged through the pages with barely a pause. I thought I would have do a lot more explaining, but evidently not! I'm quite sure that before long she is going to ask me if there's a bigger board.
Our 7 year old is a huge fan of math and coding (his favorite YouTube channel is Numberphile). There really aren�t many math �toys� per se once kids are past multiplication, so this has been a fantastic non-screen activity for him. It�s a little fiddly - the long plastic rods on the backside occasionally block other pieces and need a slight bend - but not bad. The balls are tiny, so if you also have a tiny mathematician on your hands, go ahead and order the extras!
Really impressive packaging and presentation, great comic, and lovely nerdy game. Wish there were a built-in (or clip-on) tray to catch the marbles, and maybe a magnetized stick for picking them off the board -- nothing a 3D printer can't solve for though!
Not the way computers actually work, but Absolutely good logic puzzles, and problem solving is what most of life is about. Components are well made and the device has this market completely to itself.
I got this for our 6 yr old son who loves math and logic problems. We saved it until Easter, and now we are all obsessed.It�s great to let our son play and test solutions or to do a problem all together.
purchased for my 8 and 10 year old homeschooled sons. They were so excited to start and played with it constantly for a week. It still get a lot of traffic, and they like to make up their own patterns as well. My 8 year old loves marble runs so much, so this is amazing for him. I like watching them trouble shoot when it doesn't work the first try.
The students in Computer Science class really enjoyed the Turing Tumble. The students were active and engage and demonstrating team building skills and communication skills.
I've tried a lot of different games that are intended to introduce kids to the principles of computing, and Turing Tumble is by far the best. It's the only one that actually "computes" on its own (without an actual computer being involved), and it's wonderful to see in action. The attention to detail in the design is amazing, and presenting the puzzles in the form of a manga story is brilliant. My daughters are hooked and I've had fun working through many of the puzzles myself.
Bought this for my intelligent 7 year old nephew, I opened the box, read the instructions, assembled the board and solved the first puzzle using the example in the instructions. The puzzles ( if that�s what you want to call them) get more challenging as you move forward. I got to the next puzzle and was staring at it wondering what to do when my nephew walked in. I gave him the basic instructions and he started putting the pieces on the board without hesitating. I asked how he knew what he was doing and he says ( it will change directions here) and resumes. We pushed the lever and the correct pattern emerged. I had to contend with the fact that a 7 year old is smarter than me when it comes to this stuff. He went on to flip the pages and solve the ( puzzles) without thinking about it. What can I say? Some brains are just wired a certain way...
My 8 and I0 year olds grandsons opened their birthday present, a Turing Tumble, during the week long freeze here in Texas. They loved each new challenge and worked together beautifully to solve the puzzles.
