MADBAAALLS! MADBALLS WILL DRIVE YOU MAAAAAD! No that's not the tagline for anything to do with Madballs that's actually what this game does.

This is just weird, you simply bounce on a platform and knock the other Madballs off apparently claiming them and being able to change into them. And that's all there is to say about this I think....oh yeah except the fact that this is weird......oh and it's crap.

This simply doesn't have much in it to consider it as 1. a decent game and 2. a good use of a licence.

A bouncing ball game based on a line of toys (never seen in Italy, so I can't really comment about them) consisting in rubber balls with "horror" features.

The aim is to drive the balls around six different courses of increasing complexity, avoiding various obstacles and hazards. You can capture several balls, which have different masses and therefore tend to react to the scenery in a different way. This adds a bit of strategy to a game which would otherwise be rather shallow. Graphics and sound are not outstanding but they do their job nonetheless.

Good for a while but not very much satisfying in the long run.

An uninspiring game that becomes a dragged out boring affair almost too quickly with hardly any sense of gameplay. It didn't make me mad and instead left me calling for bed.

Okayish top-view "push the other balls off the platform" with scrolling, but not ok enough.

2,5/5

It's a bit different but it's also a bit crap.

Another official toy/film/cartoon based game turned into complete ZX crap.
Since E.T., Superman (both 85 and 89), He-Man, etc, most games based on something popular became into hideous computer games, but still sell like bananas.
This is one of the lowest forms in the entertaining busyness, of making money by taking advantage of kids illusions and ingenuity.
Even the loading screen is crap.
