Прикольная игра головоломка в стилистике затерянного мира. Переигрывать не стал бы но на 1 раз пойдет. Если хотите выбить все ачивки то лучше сразу собирать все секректки по гайду ибо игра ну очень скучная для второго захода.
[i]"Esse joguinho é bem bolado"[/i], [b]Marcelo D2[/b] Comprei The Ball por causa de uma conquista de Killing Floor. Assim que você adquire The Ball vai ser liberada a skin Harchier Spebbington II (a skin 1 não tá mais disponível pois era exclusiva da pré-venda). Com essa skin você precisa vencer uma partida rápida no Inferno, pronto! ........... Caso você esteja participando da comunidade "Não sei mais o que fazer no Orkut", opa, na Steam, The Ball é uma excelente opção pra você aproveitar, uma joia! Na promoção fica na casa dos 3 dólares brazileiros, mais barato que isso só uma cervejinha Glacial. ........... [b]Gameplay e conquistas[/b] Você pode jogar a campanha e, se tiver a fim, pegar as conquistas, dá pra pegar o perfeito, mas com demanda. A sugestão é você jogar a campanha sem ligar muito pras conquistas, até pra aproveitar. Não se utilize também de muitos guias, vai ser necessário, obviamente, em algum momento pra resolver puzzle, mas só quando for necessário mesmo. A maioria das conquistas de The Ball são contagens, portanto quando você terminar a campanha vai tá um bom número, precisando só completar. Uma delas é matar macaquinhos, e acho que não fecha na primeira jogada. Outra são os segredos, aqui você também pode procurar explorar um pouco o mapa, mas só vá procurar tudo no segundo gameplay. A campanha é formada por 5 capítulos, com alguns divididos em 2. Tá funcionando liso, mas parece que deu uns congelamentos no PC, acredito que em algumas partes específicas, não podendo alternar janela. E também, perto do final onde você precisa criar um rastro de fogo com petróleo, pensei que não ia concluir. Não conseguia chegar até o pavio e as múmias não estavam saindo do lugar, não achei relatos dessa parte, mas felizmente se resolveu saindo do jogo e voltando. [i]É isso, um achado e no precinho![/i] ;)
very interesting game. ball puzzles very good. i enjoyed it.
[b]The Ball[/b] [i]lmao[/i], is basically a washed down Portal game set within ancient structures as you navigate your mute character. The puzzles are very simple most of the time and you don't really feel challenged enough to go through the entirety of the game. Enemies are mostly mummies and they are begging to get crushed by, yes you've guessed it - [b]THE BALL[/b]. I've only played for an hour but I already saw all this game has to offer - mid puzzles, a giant, dragging ball that goes wherever you go, no weapons, no legs for the character who is awfully short for some reason and basically no storyline whatsoever. I don't know what were they thinking at Tripwire when they made this game with the most basic ass name in the history of gaming - [b]The Ball[/b] [i]lol[/i] doesn't bode well in my opinion at all and there's literally nothing about it that can make me play it for a minute longer. Tbh, I was basically [i]forced[/i] to buy this game in order to get a DLC character for Killing floor, no wonder why they did that because I don't know who in the right mind would ever buy this.

A cool indie puzzle game about exploring an ancient world hidden in a volcano, where the key to solving the puzzles is an iron ball 🟠 I recommend everyone play it!
This is a gem of a game! They found a fun simple mechanic and really rolled with it. Great blend of puzzle solving and action / combat. The levels are fun to explore and find the secret areas. I played this 9 years ago in 2016 and just now in 2025 I enjoyed playing through again.

Unique ball mechanic and beautiful visuals. Occasional bugs but fun achievements and extra stuff.
