Rube Goldberg
Mousing over a component of the machine gives kids a wrench that lets them make adjustments (tilt a mirror or alter the angle of a ramp, for example) and they can then drop the gumball to see how far it goes and how their modifications affect the results. The path the ball travels varies depending on how the inputs are changed. All the favorite mechanisms (and more) are there: a bowling ball, dominoes, water, funnels, a skateboard, a fishing rod, ramps, rubber duck, and -of course- a mousetrap. There are tips and clues available for those times when the gumball stalls.
