Stack Ball is a 3D arcade game where players smash, bump and bounce through revolving helix platforms to reach the end. Sound easy? You wish! Your ball smashes like a brick through colorful platforms that block its descent, but if you hit a black one, it's all over! Your ball shatters to pieces and you have to start your fall all over again. But even black platforms are no match for a fireball falling at full speed! Choose your strategy: speed up like a madman or stop and wait for your next chance to roll and jump. Other ball games wish they were this fun! Why Stack Ball rules: - Crazy fast speed - Fun gameplay - Bright vibrant graphics - Simple and easy to play - Great time killer

It's up to you to be as nimble as possible to discover the secrets we have in store for you. Playing is easy, just control your character with your finger. Get as many rings as you can from your colors to make your neck grow, reach more bonuses and unlock many wonders. But beware!

As you play, win keys and gemstones in order to open and unlock new skins. Become a rabbit, a ninja, or a king by spending your gems in the shop. Remember, the longer your neck, the higher the winnings. Our skins can't be bought with money and can only be obtained by playing. Our game only exists thanks to advertisements. Ads will be present throughout the game, and some will allow you to increase your rewards! However, you can support us by buying our paid version (without advertisements) directly from the game. That comes with a lot of gems to unlock more content.
