Quadrilla Race to The Finish by Hape

Quadrilla Race to The Finish by Hape is a quality starter wooden marble run. Drop two marbles into the top and watch as they race down different paths to the bottom.Design and create your own marble runs or follow the guide  included. Children have to plan the marble run carefully so that marble follows the pathway they want it to travel. Each coloured block has a different pathway. These blocks are clearly shown on the box (can be seen in the photos). This makes it more challenging to build marble runs and means it appeals to teens and adults, although it is safe for children as young as 4 to play with it.

Derived from the combination of two German words, “Quader” and “Rille”, meaning “bricks” and “slots” respectively, which are also the main components of the game. Quadrilla’s unique marble run system is “a lot like coding” (assessment from Wall Street Journal) and a perfect platform for STEAM education.

Contents 26 pieces and 30 marbles with storage bag. Ages 4 – 99 years.
