In the test: Connect element for Gravitrax ball tracks Target stone radios to starting stone Python library on Github Conclusion and table
Ravensburger has been offering the marble run components of the Gravitrax series since 2017 and has steadily expanded the range since then. The first components of the “Power” series were added in 2022. Now the game maker has released a new brick called Connect and an app.
The plastic components are all compatible with each other. According to advertising, you can “experience gravity up close” with switches, loops, tunnels, trampolines and much more. But as is the case with gravity, it essentially always goes downhill – at some point even the longest marble run comes to an end.
Things are different with the power modules: They are powered by batteries (not included). They include a lift and a small catapult. These elements move the ball back up; In this way you can let the ball circle endlessly – until the batteries are empty.
