About Roller's Escape
About
Roller's Escape is a bite-sized platformer that lets you roll around and take control of a cube that you move towards a goal. Once you reach the goal, the character turns into a sphere, which moves towards another goal by rotating the level to get the sphere to roll.
Playstyle
Avoid dropping the sphere and find the shortest path to the goal with a limited number of attempts. When flipping the cube, you start over if you run out of attempts, so It's important to think about the shortest path to the goal. Depending on the surface area of the path traversed as a cube, you'll either have an easy or hard time rolling the sphere around the level.
More
Roller's Escape is a platformer with light puzzle-solving, problem-solving, and pixel graphics. In addition, a level progression system transports you to the next level after reaching the goal. There are over 10 levels to explore, with each one being more challenging than the last. Will you rise to the challenge and beat all the levels?

The game's simplistic pixelated artstyle is cute, but makes it surprisingly difficult to see the edges of obstacles. The game is difficult to control, and overall just wasn't fun.1 found this helpful
"Roller's Escape" is a poorly made mobile/Flash tier puzzle game with two phases... first, you "roll" a cube to an exit to make a path, then you use wonky, badly done game physics to roll back as a ball to get back to where you started... and based on the player counts, it seems like everyone clearly understood it's much quicker if you don't make that journey at all. While I couldn't find this on the mobile app stores, everything about it looks and feels like it's a mobile app designed for mobile phones... for PC gaming enthusiasts, it's not going to give you a cutting edge PC gaming experience. That alone is enough to disqualify this from any recommendation. We don't spend thousands building gaming rigs so that we can pretend they're iPhones and play iPhone games and mobile apps. The graphics here are particularly awful, so bad that it actually stands out as one of the worst looking games on Steam. Not only is it just a locked resolution minimalist bit of Flash tier junk, but there's a hideous pixel filter on it, a deliberate attempt to make bad graphics look even worse. Quite an accomplishment. It's a big contributor to the failure of the game to attract gamers despite hav…
Pros: [list] [*]Vaguely interesting concept [*]It's free [/list] Cons: [list] [*]There is no pause menu [*]There are no options [*]There is no saving [*]The art style makes figuring out what you are looking at difficult [*]The game can and will softlock frequently, forcing the player to alt f4 [/list]
