Description
Zuma is an Aztec-themed action puzzler. The goal: eliminate all the balls before they reach the skull. Balls roll down a track towards this skull, and your frog-shaped idol must shoot balls toward them to stop them. Using the mouse to rotate the frog and clicking to fire, you need to create rows of three or more of the same color balls to eliminate them.
The catch is that each track is shaped differently. Part of the track may block others so that if the track is filled with balls, the ones behind some may be unreachable. Fortunately, you have up to four lives, a rarity in many puzzle games.
