Ballhalla


Ballhalla is a new, and very unique, puzzle game from Sandlot Games with a quirky cast of characters and an equally quirky storyline! Or should I say "quarky" as the lead character is Professor Quark! (I know.. bad pun attempt. lol)



After a mishap with his new invention, the Insta-Matter Transporter, Professor Quark loses his beloved friends to a distant alternate world. Put your puzzle-solving skills to the test and combine balls of matter to create enough energy to power the Insta-Matter Transporter and bring the professor's friends back home safely.
  • 16 collectible trophies
  • 60 levels in adventure mode
  • 20 extra levels in relaxed mode
  • bonus levels

The object of the game is to match colored balls (of energy) in a suspended, swinging container without upsetting the delicate balance and tipping the container over. Each ball match increases their weight and power. I found the later levels of the game incredibly challenging!

I was able to focus test the game for Sandlot months ago and they've made several improvements to the game since that time. I didn't really understand the game then, and it doesn't make much sense to me now, either, lol. (Sorry, but I have to be honest here!) Not the best we've seen from Sandlot. However, it IS unusual and that itself is a great thing!

If you're in the mood for a challenging, different puzzle game, give Ballhalla a try!

I give this game a 4 out of 10!
