Fragile ball is a game where your aim is to reach the end of numerous mazes. The name is also a hint of the actual game because the ball you are controlling is quite fragile and if it smashes into a wall too fast, it will break. This requires the player to be patient and careful to his every move. Rushing through a level is highly unlikely.
The game is played only with the mouse and you can only control the ball by moving left or right with the mouse, causing the screen to tilt in the direction you're moving. This might cause some headaches after a long time playing the game since some of the levels require fast reactions. I felt dizzy after playing more than 10 minutes.
There are two balls in the game, a fragile ball which moves fast and doesn't bounce but is easily broken and a super ball which can bounce off of surfaces if it goes fast enough. Every level has its own movement limitations. Most of the levels require skill to traverse through the maze, there are no puzzles involved. In certain levels you might encounter special features like needles, which will destroy the ball if you touch them, or like a cannon which will shoot the ball if you get into it.
Fragile Ball is a decent game to play, however it is not relaxing in any way, and some difficult levels can give you quite a headache.
