Description
Special Features of this Classic Puzzle:* Save your personal best, and review step-by-step
* Thumbnail views of prior moves (tap to Undo)
* Animation: During jumps, when shaken, & at end of game
The objective of the game is to eliminate marbles by making jumps, as in Checkers. The very best result for the puzzle is to finish with a single marble in the center location - exactly opposite the starting configuration. Jumps may be horizontal or vertical, not diagonal.
As moves are made, prior configurations of the board appear in the lower part of the screen. Tapping one of these produces an 'Undo' operation. The 'Save' button allows you to store your personal best for later step-by-step review (via 'Info' button).
Scoring:
'Genius' One marble, in the center
'Brilliant' One marble, not in the center
'Smart' Two marbles, in any locations
'Try Again' Three or more marbles
This puzzle is also known as 'Marble Solitaire' or simply as 'Solitaire'.
Another App is available that includes a solution yielding a single marble in the center location. This solution can be reviewed step-by-step. See 'Marble Puzzle - Solved' in iTunes.
