Rollin was written by Michael Riedel from SAV Creation and published by Ticsoft, who among others also published Road Hog! and Flying Tigers[3].
Rollin is a fast-paced game which requires a lot of concentration. The object of the game is to maneuver the ball from the start to the goal. The ball follows the laws of gravity, momentum and the conservation of energy. Various dangers and problems have to be mastered. Up to 2 players can play the game with either the keyboard, mouse or 2 joysticks.
