ZBall

In Brief

A physics based puzzle game with elements of pool (vague)

The Game

This is not Z-Ball, an excellent breakout released 18 years ago. Today's offering is a casual physics based puzzle game where you have to move the green balls to the green area on each level by hitting the yellow balls with your mouse pointer. Hit them in the right point to get the balls to move the green ball or knock down barriers made up of movable bricks so that the green ball has a clear run to the green area. Levels get increasingly complex as you progress through the levels. Once a level is unlocked you can replay it any time.

A positive thing about these Falcoware games that we have been getting on a regular basis during the weekdays Monday to Friday since November 2018 is that they have removed the Falcoware installer which used to open your browser to the Falcoware home page every time you closed the game down and always started with an advert while the game was booting up. The only time you are redirected to Falcoware's home page now is when you first install the game. there is no adware included with their games now, just the registered version of the game.

The game was released on Steam last week, but there are no community reviews of the game yet. You can see a short video of game play via the store page HERE.

The game includes 40 levels with physics related puzzles. Graphics are quite basic and there is little in the way of different style bricks, basically most of the bricks are the same square shape; the only difference is the colour of the bricks. Some bricks are immovable, others can be moved when hit by either colour of ball.
