Remember the game Marble Madness? It was an arcade game by Atari back in 1984 that made use of the trackball controller to move marbles through an isometric labyrinth. One of my favorite games for the Nintendo Wii, Super Monkey Ball Banana Blizz, is making use of many of the elements that have been introduced by the godfather of the move ball through labyrinth game.
Trackballs is a free version of Marble Madness that sports the old and many more new levels for everyone’s entertainment. The game features currently over 70 tracks and additional tracks can be downloaded from the game’s website.
Executables are available for Linux and Windows. The player moves the marble with the arrow keys and has to reach the level exit before the time runs out. The difficulty of the game lies solely in the game layout with tiny passages, drops and ramps plus enemies that make the life of the player miserable.
The game is definitely fun to play and offers nice graphics. Does not have to be installed in Windows and can be played right from the location it was unpacked to.
