Our take on Lost Marbles
The game concentrates on coordinating three marbles and mastering their interactions with hazards. That focused design leaves less room for broader exploration, narrative progression, or varied multiplayer modes beyond leaderboard competition.
What is Lost Marbles?
Lost Marbles combines platforming with puzzle solving across 40 levels.
Players control three marbles at once, using their different materials and abilities to navigate hazards and reach each level’s finish as quickly as possible. Rubber can jump and float on water, Paper can become smaller but burns in fire, and Metal can accelerate and break through objects. The game includes a Hardcore Mode, unlockable skins, online leaderboards, and support for Xbox 360 controllers. Its presentation uses colorful visuals and music. A Windows or Mac demo is available from the developer’s site.
