The Rambling Brick

Recommendation: no 3.5 / 5 by Richard

The shape is satisfying, as are the mechanisms. The construction experience felt unnecessarily challenging – perhaps I was tired, perhaps I was ham fisted, perhaps I got excited and rushed – but it was too easy to misplace elements and produce complications down the road. I loved the color blend in this set: the primary colors were so vibrant, and reminded me of a simpler color palette.
