description Roller Coaster Challenge Overview
Roller Coaster Challenge is a single-player logic puzzle game released by ThinkFun in 2018. Players use 39 challenge cards of increasing difficulty to connect track pieces, constructing a continuous roller coaster route that carries a car from start to finish while passing through specific posts indicated on each card. The game develops spatial reasoning and planning skills, combining elements of ThinkFun's earlier Laser Maze and Gravity Maze products with a roller coaster theme for children ages 6 and up.
help Roller Coaster Challenge FAQ
How do you solve a Roller Coaster Challenge card?
You first place the posts and track pieces shown on the challenge card, then use the remaining pieces to build a continuous route from the start track to the end track. The completed coaster must carry the car through the required dips, curves, loops, and tunnels.

Why is Roller Coaster Challenge considered a STEM puzzle?
It combines logic constraints with basic engineering ideas such as height, gravity, track geometry, and route planning. ThinkFun's product was a Toy of the Year finalist in 2018.

How many challenge cards does Roller Coaster Challenge have?
The count varies by edition: one instruction manual describes 40 challenges, while ThinkFun's current US listing advertises 60. A catalog entry that says 39 cards may therefore refer to a regional or older package, so the box edition is worth checking.
