Fireball Island

Players guide explorer pawns up a raised, molded 3D board toward a rotating tiki idol that holds a giant ruby. Movement follows paths and tunnels up the mountain; the goal is to grab the jewel and carry it down the far side to a waiting boat. The idol and volcanic vents periodically launch marble “fireballs” that roll down the slopes, knocking over pawns and triggering collapsible bridges as they travel. Play combines route planning, timing, and managing the hazards created by moving marbles.

    I give this game a high rating, if only because I like to roll the marbles down the chutes.
