Marble Madness is a game that is like a three-dimensional maze. This is why I liked it so much. The object is that you have to get your marble to the end of the maze in five different levels. The catch is that it doesn't tell you where the end of the maze is. To find it, you must get through obstacles. The key, in this game, is strategy.
Get the color version instead

Marble Madness is one of my all time favorite arcade games and it has been ported to almost every other platform. This Game Boy version is faithful to the original but...
The game requires a lot of pinpoint agility and with the GB's small screen and control mechanism, that's sometimes hard to accomplish. You should also look for the Game Boy Color version instead of the B/W version.

I have played this game on nes before and I think it is great! I only got to yhe 3rd level but its still all exiting. It takes good contral, speed, and wits to play this 3D game.With this fun game nintendos gameboy will never go out of style. This fast paced game will keep you playing for hours. It is pure family fun. I have a amazon gift certificet and I might buy it. This is a good game.

This is an original "race" to the finish, because you play as a marble and go down a 3D course full of traps, hazards like puddles of acid, vacuums, enemy marbles, slinkies that eat your marble and several challenges. This is not a game for children or anyone who can get frustrated easily, because first of all the controls are not where you press down and your marble goes down, when you press down your marble goes diagonally down and left! Secondly, if you fall far enough, your marble will break and crumble, but fear not, because you have unlimited "marbles," however you are limited by time. Once your time runs out, that's it! There are only five courses in the game. This game is a perfect recreation of the original Nintendo game. There are no Gameboy Color features (there is a Gameboy Color version), however there is a two player linked mode, so two players can race each other down the course.
