Skip it if you…

- Players who prefer open-ended exploration instead of a sequence of increasingly difficult levels
- Players looking for a finished campaign substantially larger than the 17 included levels
Our take on Ballex
Ballex gives up combat and broad exploration to concentrate on navigating constructed stages. That narrow design puts movement, hazards, and ball-state changes at the center, so players seeking varied action systems may find the experience limited.
What is Ballex?
Ballex is a 3D action-puzzle game about guiding a ball through challenging levels.
The ball can change between physical states, while each stage presents structures to use, traps to avoid, varied weather, and monumental sky gardens. The game includes 17 levels, with difficulty increasing gradually and Chapter 3 covering levels 13 through 17. Key assignments can be remapped. A level editor for Mac and PC lets players create stages and upload them to Steam Workshop. Workshop maps created by other players can also be downloaded. The vendor describes further levels as part of future development.
