Marble Mob

A gumball machine full of marbles sits on top of the maze. Slide the gates into their path, start pouring, and watch a trickle grow into a mob.

Marble Mob is a physics puzzle about crowds. Each level is one maze, one cup and a few pieces to arrange. Set the pieces first, then pour: tap for a single marble, hold for a stream. Every marble rolls, bounces and piles up with real physics, and every green gate it passes through multiplies it. Land enough marbles in the cup to clear the level, and save a few in the machine for extra stars.

The catch is room to move. Pieces slide only across open floor, never through walls or each other, so the gate you need is often stuck behind the crate you don't. Half sliding block puzzle, half ball maze: clear the way in the right order and two dozen marbles can reach the cup as several hundred.

In the maze:
• Green gates (x2, x3, x5): every marble through them comes out two, three or five times over.
• Red gates (÷2, ÷3): they shrink your crowd. Park them where the stream can't reach, when you can.
• Crates: block a path, or drop one into a pit to plug it.
• Pits: whatever rolls in is gone.
• Fans: a gust that lifts the stream where gravity won't take it.
• Mouths: they eat marbles until they're full, then let the rest roll by.
• Black holes: the same idea, with a much bigger appetite.
• Creeping lava: it spreads across the floor on its own clock. Clear the route before it gets there.
• Chutes: marbles only. Your pieces stay on the floors.

Came up a few marbles short? Take ten more once and keep going, try again with your pieces right where you left them, or reset the board and think it through from scratch.

It starts gently. The early levels teach one idea at a time, with a hand that shows you the move, and every new piece gets a level of its own before it joins the others. Later mazes turn into real brain teasers where each piece is in another's way: logic first, then the satisfying rush of the pour.

Plays with one thumb, with sound and haptics on every gate, every marble that lands and every win.

Grow the crowd. Solve the maze. Fill the cup.
