Scribble Roll
A cozy doodle physics puzzle. Draw slopes and lines in pencil to roll your ball over every star and home into the swirl, weaving around eraser smudges that nibble the lines you draw.
How to play
Scribble Roll is a cosy physics puzzle you solve with a pencil. Each page is a sheet of ruled notebook paper with a little blue scribble sitting on a ledge. Draw lines and slopes with your finger or mouse and the scribble rolls down them: gravity does the rest. Sweep it over every star, then guide it home into the swirl.
The roll of a page
Every page is the same little loop, start to finish:
On the page
Eight pages
Scribble Roll is eight hand-drawn pages, back to back, from a gentle Warm up to the Grand finale. Early pages are just you, a ledge and a star or two; smudges turn up on page three, page five hides its swirl down in a pit, and the last sheet piles four stars onto one busy page. Nothing is saved, so it's one cosy sitting from cover to cover.
Tips
- Gentle slopes beat steep drops: too much speed and the scribble launches clean over a star.
- Line one slope up so it grazes a star on the way down; a single stroke can grab a star and reach the swirl.
- Grab a star the moment your ink runs low: it's your only refill besides undoing a line.
- Keep your strokes clear of the smudges, or they'll eat your work and your ink with it.
- Fell off the bottom of the page? The scribble just pops back to the start, so redraw and try again.
