Roll the Ball® - slide puzzle Reviews

by Alicmyballs

A puzzle game should be at least a little bit challenging. I’ve played for about an hour or two cumulatively, and the difficulty hasn’t seemingly increased at all. I’m earning a lot of hints but haven’t needed any of them, meaning if it does start to get somewhat challenging I’ll have so many hints racked up that it still won’t feel rewarding to complete each level. If it does get harder it does so much too slow. The “hint” feature literally traces the path over the squares so it’s more of a guide than a hint. This leaves me with very little of the satisfaction of solving a puzzle.

Good things are there are little to no noticeable bugs or performance issues, and for a free game the ads are pretty few and far between.

Im now on Indus having had RolltheBall for a few months and even payed to make the adds go away. Its fun and I often play to pass a few minutes while waiting for something. But having done more than 200 puzzles now. Its just not hard. Thats its main issue to me. I keep playing hoping it will get hard. Still fun though. I find its hard to get 3 stars just because you will complete a level on accident on some levels. Give us a challenge pack guys.

This game is fun- the puzzles are nice (albeit a bit easy). However, the ads are ridiculous and pop up after almost every completed level. These ads last anywhere from 15-30 seconds and are very frustrating to have to deal with so frequently. Perhaps I’ll cave and spend the $2 on the ad-free version of the game, because even for a “free-to-play” game, these advertisements are on another level.

I’ve downloaded this game a few times across several devices over the years and I’ve truly never had an issue with it until this recent installation.

The game itself is entertaining and a quick time killer, but it’s a “hurry up and wait” type wherein you play two levels and two levels only, just to be greeted by a 5 second add. If the ads were varied they might be less intrusive, but it’s constantly “Game of Thrones” and other rubbish.

However, with the levels being ridiculously easy to solve and move through, it almost forces you to pay the $1.99, which I refuse.

WARNING PLAYING WITH KIDS DUE TO BAD ADS....

This game is awesome and I love playing it especially on days when I'm stressed.... Chills me out every time! I highly recommend this game especially for people with anxiety/high stress levels etc. The only reason I'm not giving 5 stars now is because the ads have become not only more frequent but violent and full of things I don't want to see lil loan when I'm playing with my child! It wasn't like that until the last update but if that was different still then most definitely a 5 star game all the way!!! UPDATE: 2019

The ads are still super often but the types of ads are not so bad now.

I’ve been having a blast with this game whenever I’ve needed a quick fix over the last couple of days, but today’s update brought forth a concerning problem: it’s heating up my phone. This game is so simple to run that I’ve seen it playable in advertisements in other apps. It’s not a very demanding app at all, and the idea that it’s making my phone so hot is ridiculous. Otherwise, it’s a fun game to play in short or longer sessions. I’ll be staying away until it stops heating up my phone, though.

I honestly didn’t know if I was going to like this game or not since it was offered to me when one of the game ads popped up in the middle of a different game.

I mean, give me a break! Creating a simple maze whereby a ball rolls on a course through stars to a goal, didn’t sound very exciting to me.

But, after experiencing brain trauma after falling and breaking my neck a couple of years ago, I was looking for something to help rebuild cognitive functioning. My PT, SP, and OT therapists had suggested that I might enjoy some game apps that did that.

I was excited to see that “Roll the Ball” met that goal. I’ve been playing this game for a few months now and it’s so much fun, I can’t put it down for long.

If you enjoy a game that is fun, and will challenge your cognitive skills, this a game you should try.

Thank you for designing this game.

I really love this game when I first downloaded it this year it had only the Star mode unlocked after I completed Andromeda Moving mode, Rotation mode, and classic mode were unlocked which was more good😄😄😄 so far everything was going pretty good I really love this game because I’m not having that many difficulties completing levels Like on Star mode I’ve already completed the packages of Andromeda, Bianca, Comet ,Deimos ,and Eclipse.I’m also already on Full moon I just started Full moon. All those five packages had 180 stars collected out of 180 you probably know that in Star mode The moves are unlimited which might be why I have those five packages with 180 stars out of 180 stars The other modes like Moving mode, Rotation mode , and Classic mode have target moves I did complete Alpha on Classic mode. Got 178 stars out of 180. So this is why I really love Roll the ball so much 😄😄😄😄😄😄😄😄😄😄😄😄😄😄😄😄😄😄😄😄😄😄😄😄😄😄😄😄😄😄😄😄😄😄😄😄😄😄😄😄😄😄😄😄😄 I’m also really close to completing the package of Angle on Rotation mode😁😁😁😁😁

The noise works the puzzle blocks work the movement of the color blocks in a box works the colors work the overall visual package works and it’s tricky at first but you can get better by playing more times. I start with Solitaire then play Roll The Ball then finish with Backgammon and RTB gives your grey matter a good time! Try it out and have a little fun moving blocks with Stars that are necessary to solve the puzzles.

Haven't had really any issues with the game so far. The ads are a bit annoying, but comparable to other similar freemium games. I like the fact that I'm not trying to get 'the perfect solution' to earn 3 stars, or minimize the number of moves I make. Any solution allows advancement. I also like that there's a discrete solution to each puzzle, rather than open-ended puzzle games like candy crush. Gives a better sense of accomplishment for completing that particular puzzle. I've only completed two batches so far, but I'm hoping later puzzle groups start to carry more tiles and harder challenges. Overall, it's fun, a bit addicting, and a quick play over a bathroom/lunch break, or on the train into work. Keep it up.

The developers of this puzzle game put a lot of effort into making many different levels. I hav played this for at least 3-4 months now and am just now getting to the end. The game is fun but don’t expect extreme challenge in completing the puzzles. For me, I liked the idea of playing it for 3-5 minutes at a time and completing a puzzle or two. I rarely played it and didn’t complete at least one puzzle. Enjoy!

I’ve been been seeing a doctor for my memory; due to medication side affects for years. All though it has gotten better. It just keep slipping. Hearing that playing some games can some times help with this, tried several. They were fun, but did not really help.

Recently one of those promos came up. You know those ones that come up during the game to give more life. Yah, I don’t usually download them, but. This time it was a puzzle. I remembered how problem salving was a good exercise for the brain.

My husband and I can see a significant improvement in my memory, in just a few weeks. I know it didn’t do it by itself, we believe it was a large part of it. I won’t stop playing.

Thank you very much,

In the free mode adds take over after each round. You can only play if you pay to remove adds. Once you pay for your first device you can add others linked to the same account. You have to go through a second purchase as if you are paying again, then it installs on second device for free.

When I first saw this game I said to myself that it was too easy and that was JUST by Looking at it on the page… without trying.
One day I downloaded anyways….just until I found something more interesting.
Don’t you know…this game is Harder than I thought. Not only that but I am thoroughly enjoying myself and I’m going back to get “three stars “on the ones that I miss before.

I got tired of all the ads so I paid for the ad-free version. Guess what? There’s still the same button way too close to the game controls. It keeps bringing up more ads. That’s even more annoying, since I thought I paid to get rid of them.

Update. After I complained about the button still bringing up ads, they deactivated it. Now if I hit that button it doesn’t do anything. Now I’m really enjoying the game, it’s a 5 Star Game now. Thanks

Normally I don’t download games on adds. But for some reason I downloaded this one. It’s been really fun! And it passes time, so far I have completed 134 levels. It makes me want to complete the whole game. So far I have three stars on them all. My goal is to keep it that way. This game is awesome and amazing! The adds are a little annoying though. The quality is good and so far, I haven’t experienced any glitches. Very good game keep up the good work! Good job to the people who designed this game!

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

I’m not really a phone/game person. I’m a ps4 monster hunter person but this puzzle game is just what I needed. I dare say that it’s less of a good game and more of serendipity; although I can’t say such a thing without decreasing and taking away from the value of this lovely creation. This game fell into my hands at the right time. It’s levels are not ridiculously tough yet they’re not that easy. This is a great game to play to loosen up knotted neurons whiles easing anxiety — trust me. Just download it and keep it on the side so as to one day just fiddle with it. It’s a nice little gem.

Something unique and totally different from what I usually play. I love card and word games and some matching games, but this game offers some other problem solving skills. A little brain exercise. So far, I've only used one hint and I needed it because I had tunnel vision. There was no way to do what I was trying to do. That should have been my first clue! It's different and addictive. I'm not fond of ads, but this one has far less than a couple of games I play, so I'm not as annoyed as some players. I just hope the number doesn't increase.

Roll The Ball is a great challenge to try to earn all three stars on each level. It’s a game where you have to visualize the end result before making the first move. Otherwise you may become so focused on moving one piece that you fail to notice you are completing the path and may get only 1 or even none of the stars. Each level can be quick so this game is ideal to play while waiting in line at a bank or other place. It’s easy to stop when you need to and great fun while trying to solve the ideal pathway in each puzzle.
