Monster Ball: A New Game by Legless Lizard
Games
Indie games developer Legless Lizard Games has
just released Monster Ball, a new 3D arcade game for the PC. But is this yet
another entry in a classic game type that has been around since the early 80’s?
Nope – it’s an entirely new gameplay concept.
Monster Ball is a "snooker-em-up" – a
challenging, brain-teasing and somewhat surreal action game with innovative and
multi-layered gameplay. It’s sort of like pool… but with monsters.
Monster Ball features colorful and attractive 3D
graphics, over 150 waves of enemies to defeat, cunningly designed special
achievements to aim for, and an adjustable difficulty level to suit all levels
of player skill. Players can even save replays of their games.
Monster Ball is family-friendly, but that doesn’t
mean it’s coated in saccharine. Monster Ball can be enjoyed by gaming fiends of
all ages. What’s more, the game is structured so that persistence will always
bring progress – but to truly master the game, a player must become both
skillful and adept at thinking on their feet.
A free demo of Monster Ball is available
