Ball Bounce

Why We Picked Ball Bounce

Ball Bounce gives you nothing to learn and a score to beat, which is the oldest bargain on this shelf. A good run looks calm from the outside and feels like barely controlled panic from within. The loop is old because the loop works, and nobody has improved on it. It ranks 473 of 500 in arcade, and the gap between it and the top is mostly luck of the thumbnail. The page's own numbers: 5.0 out of 5 from 1 ratings.

How to Play

The page documents very little, so these are the things worth knowing before you spend time on it:

• Scroll the page until the whole frame is visible, since clipped edges swallow clicks near the border.
• A run ends when you are caught, and the score is the only thing that survives it.
• Use fullscreen on a small screen; the edges of the play area matter more than the text.

Editor’s Note

No tutorial, no menu, no save slot — the game starts when the page does. Nothing about it is complicated, which is why it works on a phone in a queue.
