About Cups and Balls
A great puzzle needs only a few simple elements to toy with the rules of physics and create a truly challenging and absorbing test of your logic. That’s certainly true for this addictive and original puzzle game that will have you racking your brain and trying over and over again to complete each level with nothing more than a pile of balls and a few pieces of rope.
It's a focused puzzle game made for fans of the genre. Pick it up for a short break or settle in for a while — it runs well on phone, tablet, and desktop alike.
A couple of things help once you get going: Watch for combos: clearing pieces in chains usually scores more than chasing the timer. If the game has a hint button, save it for when you are genuinely blocked, not just slow.
Whenever you want it, Cups and Balls is here on Glaze Games — free, instant, and built to run smoothly without a download.
