Hue Ball is part exercise in calming meditation, part throw your phone across the room
We've been hands-on with an early build, and this is what we thought of it
It's tricky is Hue Ball.
Not just tricky meaning "hard", but tricky meaning "hard to pigeonhole".
Hue Ball is calming and Zen-like in its presentation, with soothing audio and visuals, but the gameplay is tough and timed, and you realise very quickly that you'll have to work very hard for the top scores.
A tricky one then, that Hue Ball, and definitely one worth a look, considering a) it's so distinct, and b) it's free (with an IAP to remove ads). It'll be available at the end of May / early June on iOS, and there's an Android version in the works too.
