    Switchball is an inventive and fun puzzle-driven game based on real world physical interactions. Beautiful and elegant 3D graphics offer panoramic views of 30 incredible levels in 5 amazing worlds.

    The game puts the player in the role of a marble, which is guided through a narrow winding course suspended in mid-air in five different worlds:
    Skyworld, Iceworld, Caveworld, Cloudworld and Lavaworld.

    The marble can be morphed into different balls with unique physical properties, like a Marble Ball, a Power Ball (which can be charged and have an accelerated "dash", a "jump" ability or switchable "magnetism" properties), a Steel Ball (which can push heavy objects around), and so forth.

    If it were a new development, I would give the game 8/10 right off the bat.

The tracks are far more lovingly designed than you're used to in the genre, and the puzzles are varied and challenging. That it's a good buy is quickly out of the question for me.
    The *but* results from the trappings: the music is downright annoying, the lettering looks like it was designed with the first create-your-own-PC-game set for students, and even the resolution is not customizable. If you're willing to get involved with an engine from Xbox 360 times, you'll find a polished, strong puzzle platformer here.
