I recently had the opportunity to check out game apps developed by Big Fish Games for Apple devices. After browsing their online catalog, I decided to play Jar of Marbles. Seemed fitting since most days I feel like I’ve lost my marbles, ha! Upon choosing my game, I was taken to the App Store where I easily downloaded it to my iPad. That’s when the fun began. I’ve never been much of a “gamer”, but, when I find a game I like, I get sucked in. This one was no different!
The game was so easy to play, there were different levels ranging from Beginner to Difficult. There were also different modes of play, such as Clear the Jar, Free Play, Fixed Time, and Race the Clock. I had a ton of fun playing Clear the Jar and trying to beat my previous times. The concept of the game is quite simple- drop the marbles into the jar and try to get at least three in a row, or at least touching. The more you eliminate, the more points you get. As you progress through different bowls, the game gets more challenging. The first bowl has no rim, but, once you start playing with rimmed bowls, you just don’t know where the marble is going to land if you get too close to the edge.
With the free version of the game, you get three bowls to play. For just $1.99, you can upgrade within the app to 9 bowls. I see myself playing this game for a long time so I decided to upgrade and I am not disappointed. To find your next favorite iPhone/iPad game, visit Big Fish Games online catalog.
