BallFallDown
BallFallDown is the classic marble construction toy, updated for iPad. Build anything you can think of, then let it run by itself.
How it works
Four steps, then get out of the way.
- 01
Open the tray
Every part lives in a tray along the top of the board. Drag one out and it lands where you put it.
- 02
Build the machine
Angle a plank, hang a funnel, screw a spinner to the board. Nothing snaps to a grid — a degree or two changes everything.
- 03
Pour in the balls
Golf balls, marbles, footballs, basketballs, bowling balls. One at a time, or a few hundred at once.
- 04
Hit play and watch
Real physics takes over. Adjust a part while it runs and see what changes downstream.
Screenshots
Six boards, none of them ours for long.
Every one of these started as an empty piece of wood. Tap any shot to see it full size.
The details
Made for messing about.
There is no score, no timer, and no way to lose. BallFallDown is a sandbox: the fun is in building a machine, watching it fail in an interesting way, and fixing it.
It runs a real physics simulation, so a ball that clips the edge of a spinner goes exactly where physics says it should — which is rarely where you planned. Boards can hold hundreds of balls at once.
It works offline, collects no data about you or your kids, and never asks anyone to sign in. See the privacy policy for the specifics.
