About Ball Down
Gravity is the enemy, and also your engine. In Ball Down a ball tumbles from the upper part of the screen toward the bottom, landing on platforms that slow its descent. Your task is to keep it alive as it drops.
The platforms are not all friendly. Some are sloped, which sends the ball racing downward faster, and there is a danger up above too: let the ball get pinned against the ceiling and you lose. Tapping either half of the screen steers the ball, which makes this a natural fit for a phone. Mouse clicks do the same job on a computer.
