Here is the twist: the hole moves, not the ball. Drag a colored hole across the board, slide it over balls of the same color, and watch them drop straight in. Fill a hole to the top and it pops away. Clear every ball from the board and the level is yours.

Easy to pick up, genuinely clever to solve - and it plays anywhere, with no WiFi needed.

🎮 HOW TO PLAY

● Drag a colored hole around the board with one finger.
● Balls of the SAME color drop in when the hole slides over them.
● Balls of a different color block the way - plan a route around them.
● Fill a hole to the top and it pops away, opening new paths.
● Clear the whole board to finish the level.

A friendly guiding hand shows you the very first move, then gets out of your way.

🧩 A REAL PUZZLE, NOT JUST A TAP

Every board is a logic puzzle with one question at its heart: what order do you move things in?

● Odd-shaped holes - L-shapes, lines, blocks and more
● Walls that split the board into tight corridors
● Rail holes locked to a single row or column
● Obstacle blockers that collect nothing and only get in your way
● Iced balls that thaw only once enough balls have dropped
● Boards where the wrong first move quietly locks you out

🌈 HAND-BUILT LEVELS

Every level is hand-built and hand-checked - no randomly generated filler. Boards start small and grow, difficulty ramps up gently, and 12 ball colors keep the mix fresh from the first level to the last.

😌 RELAXING BY DESIGN

● NO timers - think as long as you like
● NO move limits - experiment freely
● NO lives, no energy, no waiting to play again
● Restart any level instantly

There is no clock ticking and nothing pushing you. BallOut is built for the commute, the sofa, the queue and the ten quiet minutes before bed.

📴 OFFLINE PUZZLE GAMES, ANYWHERE

No connection required. Ball Out plays fully offline, so you can drop balls on a plane, on the subway, in the car or anywhere the signal gives up. If you are looking for no wifi games or no internet games that still feel polished, this one is ready when you are.

👁️ BUILT FOR COLOR VISION DEFICIENCY

Color IS the rule in this game, so we took colorblind support seriously. BallOut ships tuned palettes for protanopia, deuteranopia and tritanopia, chosen so the colors stay far apart AFTER your own color vision is applied to them.

You do not need to know your diagnosis. Just open Settings and pick the strip that looks most different to you - the whole game repaints to match.
