Roll Away Computer Game

Originally called Kula World, Psygnosis' Rollaway is the first PlayStation puzzle game to really tackle the third dimension. While other puzzlers have been happy to stick to the tried and true Tetris clone formula, this one has an original world, perspective, and premise. You guide a beach ball through a number of Escher-esque worlds that float vertically several miles above the ground. The goal of the game is to collect a key or number of keys needed to open each level's exit and cut out before the ever-present hourglass timer runs out of sand. Each structure is made up of platforms your ball can cling to on all sides if approached from an end corner. In the beginning, navigating these areas requires you to jump from platform to platform (down and up are defined by you by the way, not by any ground-based constant), avoid spikes, and other simple tasks, while later on, heated squares, icy patches, and rolling columns are introduced to further vex you.
