DESCRIPTION

Ricochet is an action puzzle game where the object is to create horizontal and vertical combinations of similarly colored balls. In a departure from other games in the genre, Ricochet involves directly manipulating the balls with the mouse. Repositioning a ball to create a combination will often cause the rest of the pile to collapse, shift, or roll, taking players more time to clear the screen. Three modes of play include strategy, puzzle, and arcade, each featuring slightly different objectives, levels, and variations. The game features an Asian theme complete with soothing music, tranquil environments, and ancient proverbs. Players can monitor their overall progress in each mode at any time by browsing the game䀙s "hall of fame." ~ Scott Alan Marriott, All Game Guide
