About Ball Roll 3D
Ball Roll 3D is a game of speed and focus. A colourful ball rolls on its own along a track of tiles floating in the sky, and your job is to steer it left and right and jump at the right moment. The track fights back: gaps to leap, missing tiles, narrow paths that snake from side to side, slopes and steps. Roll off the edge and you fall, hit something and the ball pops, but don't worry: you're straight back at the last checkpoint you passed.
New things keep showing up as you go: arrow tiles that launch you over long gaps, low blocks to jump over or land on, tall pillars to steer around, blocks that slide from side to side, spinning bars and tracks that split into two lanes. There are 18 levels across three worlds, Sky Islands, Sunset Canyon and Neon Night, and each world is faster than the last.
Every level has gems lined up along the safe path and over the jumps. Finish a level for one star, grab half the gems for two and every gem for three, and your stars unlock new balls with fresh colours and patterns. Want a different challenge? Try the endless run: the track never ends, the speed keeps rising and your longest distance is saved on your device. It plays on computers and phones with no download.
How to play
- Press Play to start your next open level, or pick one from Levels.
- The ball rolls by itself: steer left and right to keep it on the tiles.
- Jump over gaps and low blocks, and steer around the tall pillars.
- Roll over arrow tiles to fly across long gaps.
- Grab gems and pass through checkpoint gates so a fall sends you back there.
- Reach the checkered finish line to clear the level and unlock the next.
Controls
| Keyboard | Left and right arrows or A and D to steer, Space, up arrow or W to jump, and P or Esc to pause. |
|---|---|
| Mouse | Click and drag left and right to steer the ball. A quick click without dragging jumps. |
| Touch | Drag left and right anywhere to steer, and tap quickly or press the jump button in the bottom right to jump. The jump button stays in the same place in both languages. |
Tips to win
- Press jump a moment before the edge of a gap, not right on it. You also get a split second after leaving the tiles when a jump still works.
- Gems show you the way: gems in the air mean jump, and gems in a lane mean that lane is clear.
- You can land on low blocks and keep rolling on top, and rolling off a slope gives you a small hop for free.
- Spinning bars sit low: jump over the bar as it swings toward you instead of trying to slip past it.
Ball Roll 3D: questions and answers
Is Ball Roll 3D free to play?
Yes, it's completely free and runs right in your browser, with no download, no sign-up and no ads inside the game.
How do I get three stars?
Finish a level for one star, collect at least half the gems for two, and collect every gem for three. If you fall back to a checkpoint, the gems after it come back so you can grab them again.
Can I play it on my phone?
Yes. Drag left and right to steer, and tap quickly or press the jump button to jump. You can also jump with a second finger while the first one keeps steering.
How do I unlock new balls?
Every star you earn in the levels counts, and new balls unlock as your star total grows. Pick one with the Ball button in the menu.
What age is Ball Roll 3D for?
It suits players from about 8 up, and adults. There is no violence at all: if the ball falls or crashes it's straight back at the last checkpoint. The last levels are fast and will challenge grown-ups too!
