Tilt Run

You don't steer the marble directly — you tilt the whole course and let momentum do the rest.

How to play

Guide a rolling marble down twisting isometric obstacle courses, fighting your own momentum to reach the finish before time runs out.

• Tilt the course to send the ball rolling; it keeps moving on its own
• Avoid pits, edges and walls that end the run
• Beat the clock to clear each stage

Controls

• Desktop: arrow keys or WASD to tilt the course
• Phone & tablet: tap controls supported on touch devices

Tips & strategy

• Ease off early so the ball settles before a tight corner instead of overshooting
• Read the isometric angle carefully — a gap may be closer or farther than it looks
• Build speed only on straightaways where a pit won't punish it

Origins

Tilt Run draws on the isometric marble game of 1984 — roll a ball down twisting, sloped courses against the clock, fighting momentum, edges and hazards. Famous for its trackball control and its pioneering use of stereo sound.
