The game:

Play Marbles is a simple, fun, and totally addictive digital version of the classic marbles game so many of us grew up playing. If you're old enough to remember playing marbles as a kid, this plays exactly the way you remember. This time there are no schoolyard bullies to steal your collection; you can’t spill them so the dog won’t swallow them; and your little brother won’t get them stuck up his nose :O)

If you've never played marbles before, it’s easy to pickup, the controls are simple, and the different types of marbles games can be played in four environments with six different sets of marbles. You can even customize your marbles with your own photos.
