GECKO RUN CHALLENGE EDITION

Ages 8+ years      2 players or teams      Play time: Unlimited

Game on! The Thames & Kosmos Gecko Run Challenge Edition includes everything you need to challenge yourself or others to a marble-run-building competition. With 32 challenge cards, two rapid-fire launchers, and enough parts for two kids (or two teams) to build their vertical marble runs at the same time, this set turns Gecko Run into a fun, thrilling engineering game. 

• Limitless! Ever-changing, non-stop rolling fun! 
• Innovative nano-adhesive pads stick to smooth, vertical surfaces around your home
• Flexible tracks bend where you want them – around obstacles and corners
• Awesome tricks like turns, trampolines, funnels and snakes!
• Additional stunts available in expansion packs (sold separately)

This Gecko Run set is called the Challenge Edition for good reason: Not only does it have a ton of extra Gecko components, this set also contains 32 challenge cards for even more fun with Gecko Run. In half of them, you compete against the clock or gravity; in the other half, you compete against your friends or family to see how your builds measure up.

The open-ended challenges set rules such as using only the specified parts in an allotted amount of time to achieve a stated goal, like the longest run or the fastest run. There are many possible solutions to each challenge, making them excellent for hands-on engineering design activities.

A 16-page, illustrated manual guides you through setting up your first runs and teaches you how all the different elements work. Then draw a challenge card and see if you can create the ultimate marble run and win the challenge! Use independently or combine with any of the expansion packs (sold separately).
