Geomag challenge game

In addition to the classic magnetic bars and steel balls, Mechanics adds mechanical elements to the buildings, expanding the game possibilities: some parts of the structures are able to rotate, triggering chain reactions generated by the attraction and repulsion of the magnets. Geomag is an educational game, which stimulates and develops the imagination, creativity, logic, dexterity and also facilitates the understanding of complicated notions of physics, such as the creation of magnetic fields and the forces of attraction and repulsion.

Geomag is entirely produced in Switzerland, and manufactured with the utmost rigour and attention to the materials, which have always characterised Swiss production, in compliance with the strictest regulations on the subject. Geomag has been recognised as the ideal game to give by the American Scientific magazine, which has conducted research on games that favour the development of children's intelligence.

Available on Amazon. We are big fans of Geomag here, and have a lot of their magnetic rods, balls and panels already, so we were interested to try out this Cannon Construction set. The instruction booklet is all picture-based and fairly straightforward to follow and construct.

The pieces feel nice and sturdy and fit together well. We first got to work assembling the magnetic cannon, and we were amazed at how well it worked. Another victory at Geomag! AEFJ is composed by the most representative companies in the toy sector in Oct 26, News. Great news here at Geomag!

Blog On Toy Award is a very prestigious annual award born in , that takes place during the famous Blog On Our planet needs us all to make a consolidated effort to reduce the environmental impact of our products and our factories and we at Geomag want to continue to play a leading role in finding solutions to these issues.

But then we turned the page to find that Game version 1 instructions told you how to build the base and that was the one used for all 3 game options.

N got a bit stroppy because he was then having to take pieces apart but he was persuaded to start again. The catapult is quite clever. You drop the ball in, it jumps over to the top of the shoot. The second ball jumps over next to the first. Then a third ball is what shoots the second ball when it hits the back of the first..

N got very excited about how far it would travel, so had to test it at different distances. He found he could get it in the goal from one end of our large kitchen table to the other. It also worked on carpet. The next day N got out the set to see if he had enough pieces to also build the 3rd game option.
