Summary: TOO GOOD!
Review: ROLL OUT! Yep, thats right, Marble Madness is back in town ladies and gentleman. This game is FANTASTIC! Its got all the great features that the original had. I mean, who wouldn't have fun guiding a solid blue marble thru insanely confusing puzzles. They were right on point when they labeled the game " Marble Madness ". There were a few times when I thought I was going to have to be checked into a asylum. If playing this game was a crime, then I'll plead voluntary insanity.

I strongly urge that all REAL gamers pick this game up. It has such a great replay value to it. I could stay in my room for hours and hours trying to guide my ball thru all the different mazes. Even when my mom pounds on my door to tell me its time for dinner, I still keep playing. I say " Look mom, I'm a 35 year old man, and I can play Marble Madness whenever I want." She usually gets off my back then.

So pick this game up now. Don't wait, because there won't be many left, trust me on that. Submerge yourself in your room and work hard at mastering all the mazes, and then you too can call yourself a Marble Madness Master!

Summary: Just like the original arcade version!
Review: The developers of this game did an excellent job in making this game as close to the original arcade version as possible! All the obstacles, enemies, and stages are all there, just like how I remembered it! The only difference is that you can control the marble with a stylus pen, which is definitely way easier than trying to control it with the directional buttons. For those people who has played the original arcade version, and are tired of playing Solitaire, I strongly recommend getting Marble Madness.

Summary: Addictive, just as it used to be...
Review: This is a blast. I spent many hours on the arcade version way back when, and when I saw this was available for my PDA I snatched it up immediately. I find it easier to use the stylus rather than the directional button (I'm playing on an iPAQ). For $10 you can't beat it.

Summary: Retro Marble action is back again, better than ever!!
Review: This is a solid translation of the original arcade game.

Everything from the characters, physics and music of the game are well intact, for the complete 'Retro' feel of the 80's.
Back when gaming was great and eye-hand coordination was at its best for competition of high scores.

And what better game to display 'consistency' and 'grace' than with Marble Madness.
Controlling a Marble through different tedious mazes of difficulty is not as easy as it sounds,
as most of you know or will find out.

The pen control option is the best anyone as come to the original track-ball control.
All movements of the Marble is controlled through the different swipes of the pen.
Small quick swipes will cause the Marble to 'shoot' in the direction of the swipe.
A long slow curve of the swipe will cause the Marble to follow the movement and not lose speed.

I am very pleased with this conversion of the game,
as many of you will too.

A Must Buy for fans of Old,
or even for ones just looking for a good solid game.

Summary: Pretty cool.
Review: Yes, this product is pretty cool. From what I've played so far, it seems to be a good port of the addictive coin-op game from so long ago. My one complaint is that the control is more difficult, but to be fair, I really can't think of any better way to do it.

By the way, there are Pocket PC ports of MAME, so if you want the "Poor Man's Marble Madness," or any old arcarde game for that matter, you might want to look into that instead. If you just want to play Marble Madness and don't care what platform you play it on, get the PC version of MAME instead. It's much easier to play, and much cheaper, too (i.e. free). But of course, that won't impress the people at work as much...
