  • Summary: The Perplexing Orb returns in the final chapter of the Bounce series, Bounce Mania! Welcome to the world of The Perplexing Orb, an arcade game where you roll the orb through various stages dodging obstacles, collecting items, and knocking down the finish post without falling off! BounceThe Perplexing Orb returns in the final chapter of the Bounce series, Bounce Mania! Welcome to the world of The Perplexing Orb, an arcade game where you roll the orb through various stages dodging obstacles, collecting items, and knocking down the finish post without falling off! Bounce Mania brings all new levels, enhanced art, new platforms, and new obstacles to dodge!

    Bounce Mania brings the Bounce series to a close with a more balanced approach compared to the previous two entries. Bounce Mania tones down the intense challenge levels of Bounce Challenge for a more traditional Perplexing Orb entry while still bringing a fair challenge with returning quality of life features such as the checkpoint system.

    Features:
    • 50 all new hand crafted story stages designed around distance, height, and the ability to jump!

    •Retro inspired art style with different graphical options. Play in crisp HD or with a pixel filter to capture the '90s era aesthetic!

    • New platforms to jump on and new obstacles to avoid! Bumpers send the orb flying and tarps shoot you into the air! We combine them both for some crazy new level designs.

    • Stage Designs are filled with returning obstacles and features like the cracking ice, elevators, moving platforms, spinning saws, and more!

    • Time Trial Mode Returns. Race for gold medal times OR test yourself against tight dev times for an extra challenge!

    • Unlock 7 different character skins by completing different in game tasks. The extra unlockable skins and time trial challenges give this entry a good amount of replay value.

    We gave The Perplexing Orb: Bounce N' Roll the benefit of the doubt when we reviewed it but this sequel isn't just similar, it's basically the exact same game. With all the same problems as before and even less of a lifespan. It's a bit of a rip-off and we just can't support it.
