Universal Design

Retrospectively on working with people with disabilities the toy was developed to introduce a bridge element bringing various people together. The mulitsensual Toy promotes every gamers senses and forces them to be aware and cautious. The main quest is to navigate a marble from the top layer through the holes until it falls out at the end of tower. The game can be played alone or with up to four people. With more than one player rules need to be defined like the time for each move and if one or two hands can be used. Because of the solid material the ball can not be seen which enables people with blindness the same qualifications. Even other people with limitations can play because they can either hear or feel where the sphere is. During the whole process the sustainability of the toy was minded. This lead to coloring with in ethanol dissolved food color and local surplus wood.
