What is Red Ball 4

Take command of a crimson orb on a whirlwind journey through lands besieged by cube-shaped menaces. Use your agility and wits to overcome every obstacle and restore harmony to the vibrant, blocky realms.

How to Play

Use the arrow keys or on-screen buttons to roll your ball left or right, and press the jump key to leap over gaps and onto high platforms. Your goal is to reach the end portal of each level while avoiding hazards and neutralizing enemies by bouncing on them or pushing objects into them.

Tips for Playing

  • Bounce directly on top of squares to squash them, but avoid touching their spiky sides.
  • Time your jumps carefully when navigating swinging hammers and moving platforms to avoid a setback.
  • Look for hidden stars tucked behind walls or under breakable floors for bonus points.
  • Use crates and blocks as stepping stones to reach elevated areas or to block enemy paths.
  • Study boss attack patterns before striking, and strike only when they expose a weak point.
