Play Marbles: An iPhone game to recall your childhood memories

Remember those old good days when your pockets were filled with colorful marbles? Oh yeah, I recall where you hide the marble filled jars too. Never mind! Here is an iPhone game that would allow you to relive those days and also let you win countless virtual marbles.

Hitting a glass ball with another one was so much fun before the coming of handheld gaming consoles. Memories are still fresh and so are the marble games we play at school.

Play Marbles from Darkside Entertainment is one game that would let you play marble games for hours on your iPhone. I know this is kinda an absurd offer, but who cares if the stunning graphics, engaging sound and intuitive gameplay allows you to escape from other boring games in the App Store.

You are also bound to remember all the types of marble games and their associated simple rules. Play Marbles offers five different types of marble games that can be played in five different environments. There are also eleven different sets of marbles rendering a perfect graphical touch to the old is gold game.

If you are tired of playing alone, you have the option to play with your friends either on the same device or via Bluetooth. What more can you ask to show to the world that you are still the unbeaten marbler?

Though you owned jars and jars of marbles, you never could embed your photo inside the glass balls. Well, with Play Marbles, you can just do that to avenge for the customization option the world never gave you.

The control schemes are simple too. You just need to tilt the device to roll around your shooter, use the onscreen camera to aim and slide on the screen to shoot. The power of shots depend on how fast you slide and flick on the screen. It’s that simple, and now you are all set to beat your opponents or get beaten.

Play Marbles is one game that harmoniously bridges the gap between technology and super fun almost forgotten classic games. Kudos to Darkside Entertainment for that!

Even if you’ve never played this game of yore, the developers of Play Marbles have given every playability features that you won’t be able to resist. For me, it’s time to go back into the game and rock and roll with those colorful glass balls. Follow me there.
