Download Don't Drop the Ball 1.11 on Windows PC – 41.7 MB

Move the ball with the rod to avoid holes and reach as high as you can before the time runs out. Seems simple enough? Don't let the pretty graphics fool you! If you were looking for a challenge - this is it! You. Will. Struggle.

Compete with other players in monthly arcade challenges for a top place in the leaderboard!

Game offers 5 different gameplay modes:
- race against time to get the ball as high as you can before the time runs out
- clear level segments to reach checkpoint before time runs out to gain additional time bonus
- reach the end of the track as fast as possible
- navigate around holes to drop the ball into a destination hole as fast as possible
- compete against others in monthly arcade level

Tips:
- hold your phone and place your thumbs on the screen in such a way that allows you to easily slide them up and down the screen to adjust both the speed of ascension and the angle of the rod
- keep the ball close to the center of the screen - to easily maneuvre to either side
- try to avoid sudden rod movements as it is harder to predict where the ball will end
- at all times try to keep the ball slightly rolling to either side to better react to an approaching hole
- if you are brave enough, you can navigate the ball around the hole in close proximity without falling in
- if a hole hit is imminent, try to jerk the rod back to allow the ball to fall back from the hole
- if you are headed for the hole, no amount of speed is going to help you “jump” over it
- keep an eye on the progress bar and time countdown at the bottom of the screen to better pace yourself
- you may still successfully complete the level if you hit a hole, however, as a penalty a star will be deducted from the score
