  • Summary: (Also known as "Marbles! Balance Challenge") Get ready for the next adventure into the world of Kororinpa! Marble Saga: Kororinpa sets you on a journey to help Anthony the Ant on his quest to find the Golden Sunflower. Only by navigating your customized marble through unique and treacherous mazes can you help Anthony reach his goal! It's up to you to balance the world (literally) with fun and intuitive controls available only on Wii. Marble Saga: Kororinpa is the follow-up to the original Kororinpa: Marble Mania for Wii. Utilizing the same world-turning technique as the first, you'll have to twist and turn the Wii Remote to control the environments around you. As you journey across 7 different worlds, you'll come across different gadgets to help you through your journey. Every one of the 150+ levels features fun challenges to conquer as you help Anthony roll his way to the Golden Sunflower. New features for Marble Saga: Kororinpa include increased customization elements in the game. Design your own marble to navigate more dangerous levels by assigning it certain attributes and techniques. If you really want to get into the game, use your own Mii to put yourself into the marble! Marble Saga: Kororinpa even features a brand-new level editor which lets you create your own unique stages. Through Wii Connect 24, you can share your masterpiece with friends and let them take on your own devious designs. [Hudson Entertainment]… Expand

    With a large variety of extra collectibles, four-player simultaneous multiplayer, single-player trophy achievements, a level editor, and three difficulty settings, Marble Saga: Kororinpa is a huge offering in a tiny package.

    Content wise ridiculously generous compared to its predecessor, but the modified physics will most certainly not please everyone. Once adjusted, though, there is really not much not to love about the game since it improves on pretty much everything, as well as adding tons of new stuff, since last time around.

    Balance Challenge is an excellent game that has been criminally ignored by the gaming press., and comes highly recommended.

    It retains some of its predecessor's faults, but Marble Saga is still a leap forward for the Kororinpa series.

    this game was really fun to play, I dont have much time usually but it was so addictive I finished it within a week. Im not sure what some of the critics are referring to - there is no technical issues, you could only really have problems with the playing the game if dont know how to play a console called a Nintendo Wii or simply have trouble controlling your hands.
    That being said, after the first 20or so basic levels, the game does start to get challenging and requires some skill to get record times (you will hopefully pickup those skills if you enjoy the game)
    For me it was the increasing (but not impossible) challenge of passing the levels that made it enjoyable to play, I recommend this for moderate gamers.    … Expand
