Zero hour
cuboro's zero hour struck over 25 years ago. At the trade fair Ornaris in Berne 1986 the marble track system was for the first time introduced under the name «cuboro», in the shape of a set containing 54 elements.

Previous history
The game system itself was «born» another 10 years earlier in 1976 when Matthias Etter was looking for a simple three-dimensional puzzle while working as a trainee in a special school. After different tests and prototype series he came up with a building set prototype containing 48 elements with 12 different functions. A small series under the name «Konstrito» was then sold on the Christmas market in Berne 1985.

History
A consistent development began thanks to the professional manufacturing in the joinery Nyfeler, WWF Switzerland offering cuboro in its Panda catalogue and the promotion of a few «cuboro-pioneer» retailers.
