Marble Run 1.0

Marble Run is quite self-explanatory in its title however it may not be the fast paced marbles running down a set track game that the title would have you imagine but more of a precision based game where you must perfect the angle and power that you roll your marble at to make sure that it doesn’t roll off the track.

The course that you have to guide your marble around is littered with obstacles, although some of them such as trees you seem to be able to move straight through but others such as crabs will block your path and if you roll in to them too hard you may even bounce back and have to start working your way around the course again.

Marble Run looks fantastic in all of its 3D glory however the game play is very slow and it can become frustrating how slowly that you roll your marble that you try to send it harder which then only leads to it falling off the track more often and the incredibly slow rolling while you wait for the marble to be reset back to its last position.

The games backdrop looks great however the actual game play can be very slow and tedious, this might appeal to players with a lot of patience but after the initial novelty of how well the backgrounds have been made there’s not much in the game itself to keep you coming back.
