Product Description
Spinballs combines match-three gameplay with logic-based strategy. The game consists of seven discs containing six colored balls apiece, like a ball bearing. The objective is to link three or more balls of the same color by spinning the discs. Discs can be turned both clockwise and counter-clockwise, depending on which side of the disc you tap.
Link Smart
Link as many as possible before the time runs out, as indicated by the bar along the top of the screen. The best links will charge your Helping Elements. Once you’ve got three or more linked, hit the execute button to eliminate the balls, and refill the spots with new colored balls.
Often, especially in the easier levels, balls will link with very little effort on your part, but to achieve highest scores, fill the Helping Elements that rest in each corner of the screen. This requires more effort, and is necessary to reach the higher levels.
Charge Your Elements
Helping Elements can be charged and triggered. Charge Helping Elements by linking colored balls that are directly in front of the Element. An arrow will appear indicating that this link is going to charge the Element. Hit the execute button, and watch the Element fill. The bigger the link, the more the Element is charged. Each Element has its own purpose: to clear the field, freeze time, sort all balls, or multiply the points earned. Once you fill an Element it will be illuminated; save it for when you need it. Trigger it with a tap.
As you progress through levels, you are given less time to create links. Utilize the four elements wisely and develop your own strategy to reach the higher levels.
Graphics
Unlike many match-three games, this interface has a tough, industrial vibe, rather than jewels, cartoony fruits, or smiling animals. The discs resemble bearings and the sound effects sound more like something you’d hear in a mechanics garage–air tools and intense music.

With all the information laid out to you, does it sound like a good game? I installed it, as I do with every FREE app of the day. I played it for about 4 minutes before I lost interest. The concept of matching 3 liked items has been overplayed. The game play is different, but still the same. If you plan to spend to much time considering how to get the best score you will quickly run out of time. If you have memory restraints on your device already you might want to skip this one. If you are a die hard matcher, you might find the spinning wheels and bonuses enough to keep you mildly entertained for a couple hours.
