With no opponents or tricky passages, the first stage lets you get a feel for controlling the rodent, but the difficulty soon picks up. You can play its five stages at three difficulty levels: Pipsqueak, Normal, and Frenzied. Hamsterball has a well-developed style of its own, with unique colors and thematic elements that distinguish each level. The unregistered version of this cute shareware game allows 20 plays of the first five levels, in either Tournament or Time Trial mode. In the grand tradition of Marble Madness and Super Monkey Ball, Hamsterball lets you roll a protagonist through a series of wacky mazes, all the while avoiding deadly obstacles and navigating treacherous precipices.
