Bounce

For scale, across Steam · Top Sellers · Brazil over the last 30 days: the 25 chart moves that followed a price cut of more than 20% went a median of 10 places towards #1, and the 2,413 moves with no price cut behind them went 2 away. One store, one chart, one country — it is the only place we have enough observations to say even that.

Prices outside the United States have been collected since 6 August 2026 and chart positions since 19 July 2026, so a cut older than that has no market to compare and a market that joined later has no history yet. Nothing here is converted between currencies.

'Bounce' is a puzzle game in which you must apply your knowledge of geometry to ricochet a ball and remove all the pieces on each level. It features a save system, musical notes for each level, 50 puzzles, and 100 Steam achievements. The game took me about 20 minutes to complete, including unlocking all achievements, and it offers a single ending with a convenient save feature after each level. The simple gameplay makes it accessible to players of all skill levels, with clear instructions and a straightforward objective: solve all the puzzles. Considering the overall challenge, as well as the ability to retry levels as many times as needed and reset them at any point, I would rate the difficulty a 3 out of 10. 'Bounce' is built around ricochet mechanics and basic geometry. The objective is to remove all the shapes on each level using a single shot, requiring careful planning of both the launch position and angle. The gameplay is straightforward and easy to understand, although some levels may require a fair amount of trial and error to solve. The minimalist presentation keeps the focus on the puzzles, though players looking for a deeper story or more varied mechanics may find the experience somewhat limited. The game is simple and largely matches its store description, but it suffers from several bugs. During my playthrough, I encountered levels where some shapes were invisible or transparent, the ball disappeared unexpectedly, or the level failed to generate entirely. These issues can be frustrating, especially when you're trying to enjoy a casual puzzle game. They become even more problematic when recording a playthrough, as they may force you to restart or repeat sections of the game. Although I received the game for free, I believe the current price of 4.99€ is difficult to justify given the technical issues mentioned above. In my opinion, a price closer to 1€ would be more appropriate. If you're interested in trying the game or are a collector looking to add it to your library, I would recommend waiting for a sale or purchasing it as part of a bundle. In conclusion, 'Bounce' is a decent puzzle game for players who enjoy calculating angles and finding efficient solutions, but before purchasing, I recommend considering both its strengths and the technical issues mentioned in this review.
