Overview
Description

Super Monkey Ball Jr. challenges players to guide a monkey trapped in a ball through twisting labyrinths by tilting the play area. Reach the goal before time runs out while avoiding pitfalls and obstacles. The game offers single‑player Challenge and Practice modes plus party‑style multiplayer for up to four players, letting friends compete on the same screen with the beloved characters Aiai, Meemee, and Gongon.

Timeball puts you in control of a rolling ball that must travel through intricate tubing puzzles. By shifting pieces of the maze, you keep the ball moving while racing against a relentless timer. The game offers 100 increasingly difficult levels and a unique edit mode that lets you design your own challenges, supporting both solo play and split‑screen multiplayer for friends.
