How to play Marble Machine — one marble, every contraption
Marble Machine is a kinetic-sculpture puzzle inspired by the giant rolling-ball machines in science museums. Each level fixes a set of contraptions in a steel tower — gears, pivoting pin-blocks, balloons and a bell — and hands you a limited tray of track pieces. Build a route so a single released marble fires all of them in one run.
How do I win a level?
One marble must fire every contraption in a single run: spin each gear past its progress ring, tip the pin-blocks so their red pins burst every balloon, and only then does the bell count. Ring it early and it stays locked.
How do the pin-blocks and balloons work?
Balloons cannot be popped by the marble directly — it just bounces off. Land the marble on the near end of a pivoting steel pin-block and the far end swings its red pin up into the balloons. Hit the wrong end and the pin swings away.
What pieces do I get to build with?
Each level gives a limited supply of steel track: sloped ramps (tap one to flip its direction), springy bouncers and flat shelves. Drag them from the tray, drag placed pieces to rearrange, and drag one back to the tray to refund it.
Is every level actually solvable?
Yes — every one of the 30 levels was generated with a working solution and re-verified by simulation before shipping, so a solution always exists within the given supplies. Difficulty grows from a single drop to multi-gear, multi-block machines.
