Magnello involves electricity and lots of magnets. The aim is to guide a magnetic ball through a series of challenging courses and into the electric hole at the end.

A word of warning - it starts off quite difficult and doesn't get any easier. The ball can only be controlled while it is contact with electric platforms or magnets, so most of the levels are about setting the speed and timing up correctly then hoping the ball flings itself through the air and lands in the hole perfectly. The way the ball produces a ridiculously low amount of friction makes this all so much more hair-wrenching, yet somewhat appealling.

The production levels feel pretty shabby, but it's still definitely worth giving a go, even if you give up early on. Download it from Nick's site.
