コースター上にボールを走らせるパズルゲーム。薄い板やレールで構成されたマップ上に、加速・ジャンプ・方向転換など様々なチップを配置してボールをゴールまで誘導する。

画面はアイソメトリックビュー、海や溶岩の上に作られた木製コースターがローポリで描かれる。余計な装飾のないシンプルな画面構成で見やすく視点は回転可能。ただしステージが広く複雑な階層構造になっているため全体像を把握するのは難しい。
操作はシンプルで良好。日本語はないが画面を見れば内容は十分把握できる。序盤のチュートリアルなどは１分もかからず終わるが、後半のマップは広く複雑で何十分も試行錯誤が必要。
終盤では複数のボールをタイミングを合わせ誘導する必要があるが、ボールの挙動は正確で速度計などのガイドもあるので理詰めでクリア可能。配置できるチップ数にはステージごとにギリギリの上限があるが、ショートカットをうまく見つければ大幅な短縮も可能。
ステージ全体を俯瞰で眺めるマップ機能はなし、ゲームの再開時に毎回ステージセレクト必須、ステージ内の途中経過保存は不可、ボール進行の早送り機能がないなどメニュー周りはやや不親切。背景やBGMが２種類しかないなど作り込みはやや甘い。
しかしステージ数は200面と膨大。パズルは優しすぎず難しすぎず、クリア時の爽快感も高い。私は全部ゴールドランクで27時間でクリアできた。

アクションや運要素は一切なしの理詰めのパズル。値段も高くないので、論理的なパズルが好きなら楽しめるだろう。

I really enjoyed 100 ways on Xbox. I was hoping for a slam dunk with 200 ways.

Release 1.0.8 is not ready. I have faith that the developers will get the issues ironed out.

I am happy to provide additional specifics if you wish but I am providing this one because it may be immediately useful for debugging.

Level 12 has an obvious bug and that's where I the game ended for me. The ball turns right one square before the goal. There is not anything in place that should allow it to happen. My guess? A variable used for ball direction is picking up an old or hard coded value. The ball never traveled toward the top of the screen during its journey. I did use a reversed accelerator to slow down prior to the final fan. Perhaps the variable was catching something there.

Regardless. Best of luck with this release. I look forward to playing the fixed version and changing my vote.

A pleasant, chill puzzle game... that said the difficulty sometimes feels a little out of wack, for example level 28 is suspiciously easy to the point where I feel like I must have missed something. All that aside, overall a solid recommendation from me!

Just a nice little puzzle game.
Still some improvements to do, like the UI.
For me, the soundtrack is a little bit annoying, but that's not a big deal at all.
The game itself is quite good and relaxing. Would say, give it a try.
