Ever wanted to be a beach ball? References to Baywatch aside, this game is the most fun you'll ever have on a beach. Kula World puts you in the role of an inflatable beach ball, trapped in a never ending series of three-dimensional puzzles floating above the ancient Pyramids.

You'll get to bounce your rubberized alter ego to your heart's content in this game. As puzzles go, it's as irritating and frustrating as any other, but the special attraction of Kula World is its ability to totally spatially disorient you with its stomach-turning, rotating levels and power-ups that make everything go wobbly for a few seconds.

There are also the following three "helpful" objects that will either add to your score or activate bonus levels: fruits, coins and gems. Two one-player modes include the regular "Arcade" game and "Time Trial," which has you trying to complete each level within one minute.

Two-player games include Time Trial (this time you alternate turns) and Copycat, which has each player trying to duplicate the other person's moves. Kula World also supports the memory card for saving both high scores and level progress, something that may come in handy with 220 levels! This game is known as Roll Away in the United States.
