Marble Blaster Reviews
Sequel or not, two thumbs way, way up. Did you ever imagine a computer game in which you can summon a marble to roll up impossibly steep stairs and leap gigantic walls. If you know nothing about it, then nevertheless, just get this product and be in for loads of surprises all the way through. Now if only there were a sequel to the game. I had different expectations for thisbut after overcoming the first mazes, listening to the zany sound effects, and jarring my nerves as I tried to keep my marble from falling into spacemy expectations were shattered to bits. Then, there are two mazes that will keep you trying to solve them for weeks.
Sure, it's not absolutely everything that a creative nitpicker like myself would want; seeing an unchanging psychedelic marble after several years of use gets tedious, andthis was a major letdownif you buy this, chances are that you're going to see a dormant "Editor" tab in the levels menu. I consulted eGames and learned that the tab is a holdover from the developers' work, so you can't create or customize levels. Some challenges they put in to the seventy-three levels are a matrix of half-pipes, a Skee-ball replica, and a couple of tornadoes that will easily blow your marble off-course. Another setback: If you have a Mac OS or a version of Linux, this game won't operate. As you progress through the three skill levels, you'll come across different objects that'll cushion the marble after a gigantic fall, bounce it over walls, and warp gravity so that it pulls the marble toward the sky or the horizon.
How about sending it over fans, through mud, and even into space. Obviously, the cons are minuscule compared to the sheer genius and masterpiece called Marble Blaster. (Not to worry; this tab doesn't cause the operating system to crash). When we went to purchase Marble Blaster, none of that went through my mind. Above all, you have to beat each level within the time limit. And, to top it all off, how about losing a game by letting the marble fall off the track at a forty-five degree angle into the sky.
After unlocking all of the game's levels, the tab still didn't work. The creators of this game showed tremendous imagination.
