Obviously the narrative logic to this game is nonsense but the puzzle platformer's strong level design is more than enough to keep the game rolling.
I've tought this would be a pretty bad game judging by the title but well that's the reason why you DONT judge a game by its title (mostly). The ball surprised me a lot, its a solid adventure game with puzzles that are actually quite easy to pick up on and are pretty satisfying. The story is eh...? fine i suppose?, its not too easy to understand and most of the lore pieces are in secrets wich some of are hidden darn well. The object that you will use in your adventures (the ball of course) is pretty intresting...i mean its a ball that has insane powers and well its your only tool that will keep you alive for most of the game so it is kinda strange to say the least...but very creative!. Belive it or not this title has combat (yes of course you use the huge deadly ball) there's no guns, no melee weapons and that's pretty great because you learn how to use environmental hazards agianst your enemies. What about the levels you might ask? well its...hard to explain, the maps are pretty big and open but linear wich is a problem because there are a few places in levels where it looks like you might go trough them but in reality an invisible wall blocks these paths. Altough The Ball has a few issues its a very unique experience you dont get punished by dying or simply doing something wrong and altough it has lots of action its one of these games that dont expect too much from you, wich is great!. The atmosphere and the gameplay are well executed altough the start of the game is rather bland and Unfortunately the best part of the game is at the ending levels wich is not that great, but still i think it deserves a 8.5/10.
The Ball is an interesting game. Definitely recommended to everyone who is interested in puzzle and logic and to everyone who is interested to learn about the secret underground world that The Ball presents. There is an interesting lore explained by the secret heads to find hidden around the different levels. It was a pleasant surprise, I came here expecting that the game would have been filled with an interesting plot and jump-scares. I left this game with more patience towards very well designed puzzle games and confused about the ending.
Overall it's a nice experience. 6.5/10
This game has puzzles and action. But whichever you focus on, you won't have a good time.
Story is like... you got a ball and that's important. Take care of it.
Puzzle part is like... mediocre. Not special. Do here, do that and voila. Watch cut scene.
Action is like... just annoying. Your tool doesn't directly hurt the enemies. Only your ball can. Kill 'em with physics... Maybe fun on paper but terrible execution on actual game.
One of the most ok games I've ever played. It's a constant back-and-forth between nice setpieces, held back by invisible walls not letting you explore, or even get a good look at, those setpieces, interesting puzzle mechanics, held back by finnicky and unrewarding combat, and a story that completely went in one ear and out the other for me.
For every step forward this game takes, it takes exactly one step back. The most 5/10 game I've ever played.
Hands down awesome greatness
Genuine hidden gem of a puzzle adventure. It's like portal, but instead of a portal gun, you have a ball, and instead of GLaDOS, there are monkeys.
The visuals give me a headache, and I got all achievements in Cruelty Squad.
I am a 52 yo father, probably one of the oldest people playing The Ball. I am a single father to my Son, who is 14 now. My son found this game at Christmas, so we installed it on his computer and he started playing. By the end of the week he had 24 hours on this game. This was horrible for me, as it was already hard for me to find ways to spend time with my son, as he is always out with his friends or just watching YouTube. So I decided to make a Steam account and get this game to see if I could maybe play alongside him. Loaded into the game world and started playing but I was stuck on what you were supposed to do. I asked my Son for help and he helped me. Loved it as it was the best time had spent with my Son since my wife had died. This game has ever since brought me and my son closer again and now we actually spend time together outside the house together as well. This game reminded me that there's fun to be had in everything, and it has brought both me and my Son many happy memories.
Thank you <3
