The sweetest pinball machine ever! This engineering kit lets you build a pinball machine that uses edible gumballs as the pinballs! Follow the step-by-step instructions to assemble your machine, set up the playfield, and practice your skills while playing with delicious gumballs!
The pinball machine is powered by a spring-loaded launcher that shoots gumballs into the sloped playfield. As the gumballs roll down, they interact with bumpers, spinners, ramps, and targets, scoring points along the way. Use the flippers to flick the gumballs back up into the playfield and aim for higher points. The game features a rotating ramp that sends gumballs into three elevated areas, and when the gumball hits the goal, you get a sweet prize!
When the gumballs fall out of play, an Archimedes screw mechanism stores them and moves them back toward the launcher to start a new round.
