The Gaxian Tri Ball
 Tri
Ball
is a system of three magnetic balls, connected together with elastic
strings. Each string can have a different elasticity that gives a variety of
possible Tri Ball systems, each with a unique behavior.
Controls
The Tri Ball is controlled by two outer magnets that can be moved around the
table. Each magnet, when activated, attracts a ball of the matching color.
Magnet timers are used to set when each magnet will be activated and for how
long it will remain active for every shot. The Goal
The aim is to nest the Tri Ball into the target rings using least
possible shots. The Tri Ball is nested when all three of its balls are firmly
placed on the target rings of the matching colors.
Tri Ball Challenge
9 levels to go, each level consisting of 9 rounds. The number of allowed
shots to nest the Tri Ball decreases with every round. If you complete the
task within the number of shots allowed, unused shots are added to your
score. Failure to complete a round brings a penalty that also varies for
each round. Perfect playing will yield 9 points in each round.
Completing all 9 rounds will unlock the next level, with a different Tri
Ball
and an increasing difficulty.
Global score is calculated by summing up individual scores of all levels.
The maximum possible global score is 729 and it is extremely
difficult to achieve.
Tournament
9 alien opponents to defeat. To beat an opponent, you must win three games
before the alien does. A game is played until one of the players wins five
rounds.
Two player game
The same as in tournament mode, a game is won by the first player to win
five rounds. The number of games is not limited.
