Description

Eleven coloured boxes stand in a row with a ball on the middle one, and key boxes show how each colour moves it. On your turn, change 1 to 11 boxes counted from your own end, each to the next colour in the cycle; if the change reaches the ball, it moves by the colour of its new box. Bring it past your last box to win.

Controls: Left and right slide the pointer; the left button changes the boxes.
