RULES
This is very intriguing logic and strategic maze game that requires a lot of planning,
foreseeing and manipulation (especially on higher levels). Player controls between
two and six heavy balls revolving them between the walls of echoing corridors. His
object is to push them into available holes.
GAME SETUP AND PLAYING
Moving of the marbles is possible by clicking on the buttons with direction arrows or (click on
the applet first) by cursor keys. There are five levels with different number of
marbles: idiot level is game with only two marbles and the master level is game with six
marbles. You can change the level by pushing one of the following buttons: "Idiot",
"Beginner", "Intermediate", "Expert" or "Master". The button "New Game" starts a new game.
HISTORY OF GAME
The game is a sophisticated improvement of an old Diamond Glory by Mike O'Neill game which
I loved and played on a legendary VIC 20 computer.
The funny name of this BASIC program originates from graphical symbol used at that time
for holes (diamond), marbles (character O) and walls (various special characters).
