  • Great for classrooms!

    By VT School (Pcmac user)

    This app has been a favorite in my classroom. We used it to learn about the physics of the app Goldberg machines, including the basics of work and force, Newton's Laws of Motion, and simple machines. Our students will be building their own the app Goldberg machine based on their own design so it was great to get some experience building and experimenting with the machines on this app. They are always asking to play, it's truly an engaging, fun, educational experience!
  • Fun game but touch function to move pieces needs updating and it crashes

    By gnasett (Pcmac user)

    Lot of fun to see the the app goldbergs come to life. Needs a few fixes though
  • Sadly not enough levels!!

    By Bobsickle73 (Pcmac user)

    Great game and addictively fun, but really... only 18 levels? I could not give it more than three stars for that reason. Odd a developer released this game over 4 years ago and still no new levels. The game is NOT worth more than $.99 and I sadly paid $2.99 for this.
  • game breaking bug

    By RockNFknRoll (Pcmac user)

    this game is super fun but is unusable on iPhone X models due to the inventory overlapping the bottom of the screen. when you try to take an item out of your inventory the phone thinks you are swiping home or between apps. please fix! this breaks the game on level 7.
