Bal Cube
Manufacturer: Metro, 1996
Description:
This is an Arkanoid-style game with a few twists. Instead of
controlling a paddle, you control the ball itself by altering its
momentum using the joystick. Various blocks (squares, triangles, and
special blocks containing powerups) advance down from the top of the
screen. The player dies when the ball goes down through a hole in
the bottom of the screen, or if the blocks reach the bottom of the
screen. When you die, you start over at the beginning of the level.
Although the game has a ball and paddle look and feel, puzzle
elements come into play later in the game.
