Does anyone remember a game called something like aaargh that had ball bearings???

[whatsthenameofthegame]

Am trying to find out about this for my husband who remembers this from the late 80's or early to mid 90's. It was plastic and was battery powered. The aim of the game/puzzle was to pass a small ball bearing around a course.

There was a series of steps (which moved) connected to magnets and passed through other obstacles.

It was called aaagh or aaargh or come variation on it.

Thanks

I guess it's not Screwball Scramble then.

Thank you so so much. I knew I should have had a proper look at the threads first but having googled for hours to no avail I thought it would be too obscure!

Thanks again

I have yet another version similar to the above two described, but more larger. Seeing those two pictures made me dig up my old storage to find it and take some pictures. The maze game I have is from Tomy, it's called "WOW!". My parents bought this for me 10+ years ago. The manufacture date was 1991, which makes this a used product. The other two mazes were available in that store (which no longer exists), but my parents only let me get one. Even though it's almost 20 years old, it still works very well.

Seems like Aaaaghh!, Yeeaghh and Wow! are part of the same line of Tomy maze ball games. I may plan to get the other two mazes to complete the set.

Aaaargh was originally called 'trip over traps'. I had 'trip over traps' and remember seeing it in the shops with the new name aaargh. It was exactly the same - same colour and everything.

I have Aaaarghh. I was just about to e-bay it, and came across your post. I appreciate this is about 7 years old now. But if you're still looking for it, please let me know in the next week.
