When I was a kid a teacher donated an old game to the class that was a rudimentary version of this, Avalanche[1]. None of the kids had seen this game before but the satisfying mechanical movement and thinking it took to get all the marbles to fall all at once made it became very popular. I had these fond memories of Avalanche, and did actually think of it as a visualization when studying hardware in college, but over time my recall had made it more elaborate. Surprising to see how simple the old game actually was. If me and my classmates got so engaged with a primitive ancestor of Turing Tumble this new game could really catch on with kids, as long as it isn't overly complicated.
