How about using a glass or steel marble instead of the Lego provided 'marbles' ?

That is what we have done. We substituted the balls given for marbles. The very slightly flat spot on the plastic balls can impede the motion of the ball. The marbles roll unconditionally!

Cool, that's a good tip.

And to keep it all LEGO, you can use this ball: 99948 - Technic, Ball, Steel (fits 92911) (Though a bit pricey)

This one is made by Jason Alleman (designer of 21305) himself .... I like the bridge in the top right. Also important to note is that he has not modified the Maze to give it extra tilt - he obviously thinks the available tilt is good enough.

Speaking of extra tilt...

I modified mine and the extra tilt is cool - easy fix as well.

I love the classic style of this one. Amazing how simply endless the possibilities for layouts are for this 'simple' set.

I finally tried one out in the store yesterday as I haven't built mine yet. It is incredible how frustrating a toy meant for pleasure can be.

That is the only thing stopping me from buying one.  Those stupid mazes hated me as a kid.

If someone can make an Arkham Asylum version,  I think I might just be able to break even on my turkey investments.

Finally a use for all those Advent calendar minibuilds

We built this set over the weekend. I think it's a big winner. Really genius that they selected it. My son has spend the whole weekend off and on building new mazes. It just fits the Lego mindset so brilliantly. 

Then the little bastard made a covered maze where you can only see the start and finish spots. That is frustrating let me tell you.

I should have. He already took it apart. I'm sure he will do it again.

Will do. He's 7, so it wasn't too intricate from the outside, but I was surprised how hard it was to tell where the dang ball was on a basic maze when it was covered.

One of my favorite games as a kid.  I remember trying to beat my best time over and over.  I'm sure I still have it in a box somewhere.

Wwwoooowwwww.....I remember this as a kid.  Must find one on ebay, dad and I played this all the time.  

I can't wait to get mine and MOC up a new maze design.  Thinking about a sports theme or a Batman theme.  This is a briliant idea for a Lego model.

Loved this as a Kid, in the UK it was called Screwball Scramble !
