About Ball Puzzle

If you want to exercise your brain and increase your ability to think, then try this simple yet addicting puzzle game. It is a classic, but with a modern and challenging twist.

How to play Ball Puzzle

Nothing here needs explaining twice. The full control mapping is in the table below and takes a moment to skim. The game runs in portrait, so on a phone you can play one-handed, and on desktop it stays centred rather than stretched out of shape. Expect the first attempt to be a write-off; that is normal here.

Why it is worth playing

What makes Ball Puzzle stick is that failure is informative. You can usually name the mistake, and that is what makes another attempt tempting. That is a rarer quality than it sounds.
