Punch Ball 2
Punch Ball 2
Sometimes all you can do is just trust the game to lead you where you need to go and Punch Ball 2 might just be one of those games. While it's nowhere near as complex as some other games with odd titles, it can still be a bit unclear. Looking at the situation, it appears that there's a ball that is trying to get to a pipe at the bottom of the screen. The only thing that is standing in its way is a varying number of obstacles. You'll need to beat the ball to the punch so that you can punch it into the pipe.
About Punch Ball 2
Ball games usually involve interacting with the ball in some form or another, sometimes being very direct with it. This game puts the future of a ball in your hands since that ball has no hope of reaching the pipe without your help. The problem is that you need to work out the clearest path for the ball so that you can beat the game. The ball only has so much control and it's on you to work within that setup. By doing that, you can eventually start seeing things coming together and anticipating the different obstacles and their movements.
How to Play
Punch Ball 2 is a 2D arcade-style game about trying to get a ball from the top of the screen into a pipe using just the mouse. By clicking anywhere on the screen, you can remove the blocker keeping the ball in place. Once released, the ball will fall freely, affected by physics and other objects. The goal is to get the ball safely into the pipe (hopefully collecting all the coins around it), but if it hits any other object, you'll have to reset it.
When you begin, the ball will be positioned on a slope that is hanging from the ceiling. It's held back by a highlighted blocker that you can remove for it to fall. The objects between the ball's starting point and the pipe can range from moving platforms to spinning blocks. They all move in differing patterns and at different times. As long as the ball falls without running into any of those objects, it'll safely reach the pipe. The closer to the center of the pipe that it falls, the better chance that it has to collect all of the coins.
Tips and Tricks
The challenge is all about patience and timing. You need to carefully observe the level and watch how everything moves separately and in sequence. If you can do that, you can release the ball at just the right moment to get the ball into the pipe.
