The Marble rolling game genre isn't new to Symbian OS, but rarely has it been done better than here, in MicroMaze for S60 5th Edition, reviewed by Ewan. 80 plus levels over six different rolling surfaces and with bridges, barriers and trap doors to avoid, this is a smooth action casual game that you'll be playing for quite a while.

Hold on a sec - €4.95 for a marble game. That's a bit steep, no?
.... with 80-odd levels. The programmer has slaved over this for maybe 300 man hours of effort. And you're begrudging him 5 Euros? Staggering.
@Steve: I think most people do not care about how many man-hours game developers have spent when designing the game. What they care about is: joy and price. I'm not surprised to see such comments as above even if I know it very well how accurate Gabor really is (he's one of my best friends as well as an ex-colleague) and how enjoying his games are: hey, I'm still using his MicroPool on my N95.
It's another question how careful Gabor was when determining the price of this application. It's something that only time will tell him. However, if it turns out that he had overestimated it, then Freemium can still help: sell the core app free of charge with a minimum amount of levels so that people can become addict to the game: then charge for the remaining ~75-78 levels.
Really addictive game. I'm stuck on level 45. I have nothing against the cost but when converted to Indian rupee, it costs as much as a small PC game, one of the disadvantages of living in India.
I am agree the price is quite steep according to me as well.I have nothing against the cost but You have converted in Indian rupee,it costs as much as a small PC game,one of the disadvantages of living in India.But i have no problem,i have purchased full version of this game.
