Teams build & connect a series of enormous contraptions to trap a rat!
About this product
Challenge your team to build connected contraptions using creativity, collaboration, and problem-solving, culminating in an epic chain reaction finale.
Step into a toy shop like no other. Giant construction pieces—metal and plastic components, nuts, bolts, and gears—invite your team to get creative and solve problems. In this hands-on, collaborative challenge, teams design and build large contraptions. When connected in the right sequence, they set off an impressive chain reaction.
Success comes from coordination, precision, and teamwork. Teams work together within their builds and alongside others to reach a spectacular finale—a dramatic, awe-inspiring moment that shows the power of creativity, communication, and collective problem-solving—without the rat actually getting caught!
