SUMMARY: A platforming game similar to Super Monkey Ball.

Super Marble Roll is a platforming game similar to the popular "Super Monkey Ball". In this game you must tilt your device to roll your ball to the objective.

When you first start the app, you will be plunged directly into the game. You will see a brief overview of the map, then the timer will start. To move the marble, simply tilt your device in the direction you would like for it to go. Your objective is to collect as many colored gems as you can and reach the finish line before the time runs out. Each stage has a specified time period in which you must complete it in, but be careful as you only have 3 lives. Upon losing all of your lives, you will be sent back to the first stage. If you would like to stop playing, simply exit the app and when you return you will begin on the level you left off of.

My biggest complaint towards this game is the lack of any features whatsoever. There is no pause function, calibration setting, or even a stage selection screen. This game simply starts at level one, and ends when you fail 3 times. The graphics, however, are excellent and makes up for some of it's issues. The music is techno, which I personally enjoy, though others might find somewhat annoying. The game is addictive, and is certainly going to please those who enjoy these types of games. If you are looking for a cheaper alternative to the expensive "Super Monkey Ball", or are looking for another platforming game to play, then grab this app. Hopefully the developers will realize and fix their issues, but for the current price in the AppStore, this game is a great deal.
