Your toolbox
- 4 × BackSlash
- 1 × E_NE
- 2 × E_SE
Most pieces can be rotated once they're on the board. How each piece turns the meteor.
Already on the board
- 1 × Shuttle
- 1 × Astronaut
Good to know
- You have 120 seconds to place your 7 pieces before the meteor launches. Press Go to launch sooner.
- Every piece you leave in the toolbox adds 1,000 points, so using fewer pieces scores more.
- 1 Shuttle and 1 Astronaut are on the board. Each one still intact at the end adds 1,000 points; hitting one loses that bonus.
- 2 of the 64 squares are holes; a meteor that falls into one loses the attempt. 59 open squares are free for your pieces.
- The flight follows the same rules every time, so the same pieces in the same places always give the same result.
From the original game
In the original MeteorBall, this level opens with this card:
“Those deflection pieces don't come cheap. If you can save us without using all of them we will give you a nice bonus!!”
