Behind the design

When we were testing an early prototype, one of our coworkers said it looked like a cute robot spitting out dominoes. So they drew a face on it. From then on, the domino machine had a face!

    We gave this to our 11 yr old grandson. He absolutely loves it. It works well and lays out the dominoes perfectly. He has been playing with it non stop since he put it together..

    Got this for my 10 yr old granddaughter for her birthday. She built it all by herself and we all enjoyed seeing how it works. I like how the tool was included to build this project. Will be buying more for her Christmas this year.

    Gave it as a gift. The young man receiving it was excited to start building it. He is going to be 12 yo.

    It works most of the time. It frequently jams.

    Really fun build, directions are great, but pieces continually fall off as you put it together so it gets frustrating. you need like 4 hands to make it lol. but it comes together and super fun to play with!
