Optimisation
Save Balls (also known as Protect Balls) falls into the popular 'draw to save' genre, and it's a solid entry for fans of quick physics puzzles. The premise is charming: you have to draw a protective line to shield cute emoji faces from a swarm of angry wasps. It’s a simple mechanic that leverages your creativity, as there’s often more than one way to solve a level.
While the early levels are quite easy, the game eventually introduces moving obstacles and water hazards that require more precision. The 'IQ' progression system is a bit of a gimmick, but the core fun comes from the customization. Being able to dress your balls in cowboy hats or crowns and change the color of your ink adds a personal touch that many competitors lack. It’s a great 'coffee break' game, though be prepared for frequent ads between levels.
Creative 'one-line' drawing mechanics
Wide variety of characters including Doge and Panda
Deep customization with hats, helmets, and line colors
Challenging environmental obstacles like water and moving walls
Bonus levels and treasure chests for extra rewards
The less ink you use, the better your final score. Try to create 'hooks' around existing environment pieces to anchor your protective lines so they don't fall over when the wasps strike. Watch out for the water—even if you block the wasps, a ball falling into the drink is an automatic loss.
Players have a limited amount of ink per level. Once you finish drawing your shape, the 'wasp pipe' opens, and the physics engine takes over. Your drawing must hold its ground for several seconds against the force of the swarm to pass the level.
Golden keys are used to open treasure chests, which contain gold coins and stars used for ranking up and buying new skins.
I actually giggle when the thwarted bees return to their tube! I fail sometimes, but you immediately get to return to try again! I have accepted (through watching ads) a few playing faces and only the caps that I like…Faces w/o hair appeal to me…this first set is wa6 too much hair…..yuck! The line colors, yellow and red need to be brighter..otherwise they look like excrement # 1 and blood…you can get brighter colors, you are doing very well with game graphics! I intend to keep playing…they offer good hints when you are trying hard and some sets start with a hint. I never recommend games that are yucky, so ta-da!….please play this game, my friends…lots of laughs. The game is in good taste and just fun!
If you’re on a flight you should totally play this game it can go off-line and online if you’re off-line all you all you don’t have to do is just get know ads like it’s so awesome if you’re on a flight you should totally play this game it can go off-line and online if you’re off-line all you all you don’t have to do is just get no ads like it’s so awesome and this game is just super fun to save animals or people alert aliens totally play it
I enjoy this little puzzle game. The levels start out very easy so you can understand the rules, the various obstacles and how to save your balls. I like the many characters, hats and colors that you save up for. There are also bonus rounds. Unfortunately the levels start repeating after 160. I can think of many new levels using combinations of obstacles but they aren’t explored. Then again since you’ve learned how to play the game and have acquired new characters then repeating levels isn’t necessarily a bad thing. Of course you get bombarded with ads unless you buy the No Ads option. Overall I can recommend this game.
Just kidding I love this it’s just that I just started and it told me to rate I think it should let us atleast play 5th if before asking
Very good game with NO ads! But has no use for the coins you earn, or doesn’t really matter if you get 3 stars on every level besides personal goal. Would like to see some of that! And I’m having trouble beating level 79 and getting 3 stars lol. But that’s just me sucking lol, very good game overall!
I made it to level 19 before deciding to delete the game. Why? The frequency of ads for basically every level you complete and to claim an achievement or prize. Was it fun? Yeah. I made it to 19 levels, before the ads drove me crazy. Would I pay for ad free? I don’t see the $2.99 value, so no.
I like the game but i would like little bit more it if there wasn't that many ads no offense. Like every round i complete it gives me one ad, at least it lets me skip it but like so many! Dev please make it so it give you one ad every 5 rounds.
I love the game a lot. There are a few ads here and there. I am mad about one of the comments saying that the game does not have any ads. It has ads.
