About Puzzle Ball
Puzzle Ball is a puzzle game where your main task is to move a ball from the start to the finish. The goal is to complete the level with as many points as possible. The main difficulty is that there are many obstacles for the ball to pass, for example: swings, pendulums, bridges, etc. Your ball can also change the material it is made of and this might significantly influence the route of your ball.
One of the main options that the game provides you with is the creation and publication of your own levels. In the game you will find a flexible and user-friendly editor of the levels. Every player can share his own opinion on how the game should look, what should be its design and the level of difficulty. At the same time the players who are playing the newly-created level can rate the efforts of its creator and thus form his rating in the Top Builders List.
At the start the player has a certain amount of points that is diminishing all along the play time. There are bonus points on the way to the finish that can help you to reach the top of the rating list. When a player finishes the level with the greatest amount of points he sets the new record of the level. All the records are kept in the list of leaders. A player will also earn global rating points by setting new records in the levels. This gives him an opportunity to get the first place in the top of the best players.

I honestly don't remember when and how I got the game, but I recently played it for the Trading Cards and thought I give it a shot. But I'm sorry, as much as I like puzzle games, this is unplayable. And here are some reasons: The language: Even though you set the game on a specific language it weirdly displays some Russian all the time. And I can't help but think, that some of the words might actually be clues. Difficulty: Besides the fact, that the game doesn't explain everything, which most of these games usually don't need, it is incredible hard. You can restart the level, but that is problematic because sometimes you unknowingly soft lock yourself. Especially frustrating is the fact that the levels I played are rather long, which wouldn't be a problem if not for the fact, that one tiny mistake let's you experience everything all over again. Which is especially sad when said mistakes were made unknowingly. This is far beyond the principal of Inquiry-based learning. Bug and Glitches: Sometimes you don't have to do anything, because the other balls just start to much on their own, giving you no time to react or think. If this is supposed to be a feature I would gladly…
I don't get it. Puzzle Ball is an outstanding game, with an easy to use level editor, and there are so many negative comments. What's wrong with you people? I've purchased lots of ball and marble games for more money, and this one is better than at least 80 percent of them. I highly recommend it.
A true travesty.

This game is the BEST!!! and use slabs of glass to make fragile bridges!! perfect for stoneball puzzles =D
This could easily be just a big positive review. I love physics based puzzle games, I really do. And this genre in particular, I did always liked. Yknow the one, where you push a ball around. Like Hamsterball or Super Monkey Ball, or etc. It's just a fun genre of some very good games. This game, this unfinished game, It's very bad. It has potential to be nice, but It's badly made. No controller support and the controls are oof. Especially the camera, It's terrible to play with. Horrible interface, no real settings, only audio. Language is a mix of Russian/English/German. It's like the three leak into one another, awful. Only a very small amount of levels are in this. Less than two hours of content, which is bad. The art direction is ok, I like the world design. But other than that, really half-assed product. It lacks some much needed bug-fix, and such. The last update came out back in 2016, sadly. And therefore I doubt it will ever get polished. Can't recommend buying this, It is simply bad.
