We've all been to local restaurants that have those small wooden triangles filled with
colorful golf tees sticking out of them. You know, jump one golf tee over another to
remove as many as you could, then have your intelligence graded by the number of tees
you had left. After a while, the triangle just doesn't cut it. What if it were a
different shape or shape(s), now that would be a real challenge. With this came the
idea for one very addictive computer game... MarbleHop®.
Back in the summer of 1997 the idea of making a puzzle game based on the golf tee game, but
taking to the next level, lead us to the creation of MarbleHop®. We created countless drawings
of game boards, and swaped out the golf tees for marbles. In the end we decided on the 12 classic
boards you now find in the original MarbleHop® game series.
In early 1998 the first MarbleHop® game was released to great reviews. We were
even lucky enough to be included in a full page write up in Children's Software Review
Magazine titles "Learning with Marbles". We even released a "Limited Edition" version
of the games titled MarbleHop Extreme, with 15 larger and more difficult boards.
By the summer of 1999 we gave MarbleHop® a fresh new look and added a new features and upgrades
to enhance the game play. We even included two of our more popular mini-titles as a bonus. In
May of 2000 MarbleHop 2000 "Millennium Edition" was released, once again to great reviews.
UPDATE: Development of the first in a series of new MarbleHop® games is under way.
"MarbleHop Genesis™: Origins of the Crystal",
will evolve the MarbleHop® concept into an exciting series of story based logic games designed to
test your mind to its limit. Scheduled for release this fall, MarbleHop Genesis™ will be the
MUST HAVE HIT for the holidays. More information and screen shots will be posted in the coming
months here on PsyonicGames.com.
