A Marble Saga in pictures

Marble Saga: Kororinpa could end up being a sleeper hit of 2009 -- or at least one of those underappreciated critical successes.

Anthony the Ant's Marble Saga

Marble Saga: Kororinpa wouldn't be much of a saga without characters. The latest screens feature the game's unlikely (in that he's not a marble) protagonist, Anthony the Ant.

Kororinpa rolls onto Japanese phones

Hudson's Kororinpa, a game so short that it has to stand on a stool to get served at bars, has been ported from the Wii to Japan's i-Mode phones.
