This game is really addictive! I love the way you have to look at each play to determine the angle and not feed the Octopus. I love that character by the way! When you think you have it going they throw a monkey wrench into the mix and make it better. I bought this game without trying it and I am happy I did! It is a different play on a match three. Very interesting!

I recommend this game!

I love everything about this game except one thing. I played through every level. Yes!!! That was a challenge. Now, all my stars are filled. Where is the treasure chest full of tools I once earned by playing adding a star to an unfinished level? I would like to start over again. I uninstalled and reinstalled it hoping to start the game from scratch. My stars didn't disappear. They never disappear. ...Show more

Where is the treasure chest full of tools I once earned by playing adding a star to an unfinished level? I would like to start over again. I uninstalled and reinstalled it hoping to start the game from scratch. My stars didn't disappear. They never disappear. So I have to wait for the levels that say they are "coming soon" and I know they won't come if I don't have any data. Why do I have to wait? Beautiful colourful well lighted fun delightful neat creative visuals. Fun upbeat enjoyable music and pleasant sound effect. Best fun ever. Show less

This is a very challenging and addictive game. It is probably 70% challenge and 30% luck. It is part match 3 and part physics and planning. You have different colored balls that you must destroy to unlock the keys so they drop thru the gate at the bottom.

This is a very challenging and addictive game. It is probably 70% challenge and 30% luck. It is part match 3 and part physics and planning. You have different colored balls that you must destroy to unlock the keys so they drop thru the gate at the bottom. You unlock treasures as you go but it isn't always clear what the treasures will do for you. You also come across different bumpers as the game progresses that will bounce your balls around or change colors of the balls. You need to pay attention to the keys you have completed on each level notated on the left. On the last key in each level you have to make sure you eliminate all the colored balls BEFORE the 3 keys are unlocked or you feed the octopus and have to start over at the top of that level. Don't get frustrated if you don't succeed the first time, just go back and try again. This is an awesome game - PLEASE make more. It keeps the brain challenged. Show less

I love physic based puzzles and this game is similar to "Jar of Marbles" with the added challenge of physics. I think however, this game would be more awesome as a phone app to while away the hours.

I love physic based puzzles and this game is similar to "Jar of Marbles" with the added challenge of physics. I think however, this game would be more awesome as a phone app to while away the hours.

I'll be honest, at first I wasn't digging this game at all, but after just a few levels, the physics kicked into gear, and I quickly became addicted to the challenge. The rules of engagement are fairly simple. You just aim the ball shooter at the top of the screen, to shoot the same colored marbles that are strategically hanging below. If 3 or more identically colored balls touch, they will disappear, and you will consequentially receive another move.

The goal is to release all 3 keys to open up the next level, until you reach the final level (more on this in a moment) Each of the 3 keys are encased in several multi-colored layers marbles. You must first shoot a marble of the same color as the outer casing, to release the hanging marble. You must then shoot marbles to make matches of at least 3, to chip away the casings, until all 3 key marbles touch each other to unlock the gate, which drops open. The goal is to match all 3 keys, it doesn't matter if marbles remain hanging, (other than you can get extra moves when they are matched) but any remaining unmatched marbles that aren't hanging, that are laying on the gate, will drop through the gate when it opens. (sometimes it helps you, sometimes not, as they then hit the hanging marbles on the next level which knocks them down)

When you get to the fifth and final level, the goal changes to "Don't let anything fall through the gate" So if all 3 keys are matched before you are able to match any marbles remaining on the gate floor (not the ones hanging) it will feed the octopus when the gate opens, and you will loose one out of three available stars for the level. It is a little difficult to keep track of the levels, because it's easy to forget that you're on the final level, but the levels you earned keys on, are shown on the left of the screen.

If you run out of moves, you will have to start the entire level over from the top floor. It sound easy in theory, but the further you progress, the more difficult it becomes, as they add way more marbles, more colors, and more layers around the keys. And of course, these are glass marbles which don't always land where you want them to because they bounce, and the hanging marbles can create a log jam as well!

As I said earlier, this is a fun and addicting game, but I think it would be more fun to play on a phone when you're really bored. I'll use a coupon for this one, I'm just not sure how long you can play this game before it potentially becomes boring? Show less

I recommend this game!

After level 30, everything just kind of stops, and the remaining levels shown are "coming soon". There is no end of game sequence. Seeing as this game is copyrighted 2015, good luck on seeing those ever appear. To be fair, getting to and clearing level 30 was enough of a challenge to make it worth the while.

After level 30, everything just kind of stops, and the remaining levels shown are "coming soon". There is no end of game sequence. Seeing as this game is copyrighted 2015, good luck on seeing those ever appear. To be fair, getting to and clearing level 30 was enough of a challenge to make it worth the while.

The good: It's a physics game that appeals to my inner geek, and it didn't get difficult until level 11. At that point, you're going to need to turn on your brain and do a few replays to get through some of them. Each of the 30 levels has 5 "sections" - when you get to the 5th, the goal is to not have any leftover balls fall down to the monster, to get your 3 stars. Good luck with that, especially later on.

The bad: Music always on (fortunately I have speakers with a volume knob), no way to create a profile, no way to reset the whole magilla and start over from scratch once you finish the game, at least not that I can see.

Overall: Worth a free credit or a couple bucks to kill an evening or two. Recommended, but only with all of the above in mind. Show less

I recommend this game!

After the demo of K3Y I am reminded of a couple of games that came out a few years ago and those were the Peggles.
This is of the pachinko variety wherein balls of a particular color must be dropped and touch rings of the same color. When 3 balls touch each other they disappear from the grid in the same way that Bubble Bounce games occur. So I guess the player is given 2 games in one. There are ...Show more

After the demo of K3Y I am reminded of a couple of games that came out a few years ago and those were the Peggles.
This is of the pachinko variety wherein balls of a particular color must be dropped and touch rings of the same color. When 3 balls touch each other they disappear from the grid in the same way that Bubble Bounce games occur. So I guess the player is given 2 games in one. There are black balls with keys in them that must be struck so they land on a bottom plate. When all keys are amassed and the colored balls removed the keys open a gate to another segment of the same grid or the game progresses to the next sequence.
As the game continues the difficulty increases and there are obstacles inserted.
The instructions for the game are somewhat vague; however I did not really get into looking for them. I played till the demo ended and was on the 10th grid. This is a better game than I thought it would be so I will probably use a free game code to acquire it. What is most appealing is that it's different than the usual offerings of HOPA, Match 3, TM's etc. Show less

I recommend this game!

The most different thing is that you have no choice of balls - all other marble popper, or marble dropper, games I have tried give you a different colour ball if you click the right mouse button, this game just seems to produce them in rotation of the colours which are in the level, and as moves are limited this can get a bit frustrating.
