Your goal is to progress level by level (there are 150 in total) and find the keys in each to open the gate to progress. You’re also monitored in terms of score, with coins and other collectables increasing this and there is one piece of fruit in each stage, with five of these opening a bonus level where you can collect even more fruit and boost your points.

but I didn’t want to wait! So I searched for, and found , my original Knights in the Nightmare…. for the DS! Still in working condition, and playable on my 3DS. I just started a new game a few hours ago. Coins with the depicted crowns are difficult not to notice, even when the glory turns his head. Each such coin gives 250 points. Ever wanted to be a beach ball? References to Baywatch aside, this game is the most fun you'll ever have on a beach. Kula World puts you in the role of an inflatable beach ball, trapped in a never ending series of three-dimensional puzzles floating above the ancient Pyramids.

Puzzle Dimension did not grab me… maybe because it incorporated the mobile-esque three-star system for each level? Maybe because it was relatively easy and straightforward, at least early on? Maybe because I had since seen so many puzzle games and designs, and this type of challenge no longer seemed fresh to me? Maybe because, being much older, I’ve changed and am considerably less drawn to most puzzles? The red exit reminds you that you need to find a few remaining keys somewhere on the level. The green output allows you to go to the next phase. Shawn Smith; Dean Hager; Dan Hsu; Ken "Sushi-X" Williams (October 1998). "Kula World [Import]" (PDF). Electronic Gaming Monthly. No.111.

There’s cooler worlds than Kula World but as PS1 puzzlers go, it’s difficult to criticise what’s on offer here. There’s a sea of ball rolling, perspective shifting content and although its method of delivery could do with some tweaking, it’s a solid effort.

Avoid capsule pills at all costs. If you grab it, then the timer will start to devour time with such speed, that the fuss will begin, and you will not be able to finish the level in time.

The PlayStation (officially abbreviated to PS, and commonly known as the PS1 or its codename, PSX) is a home video game console developed and marketed by Sony Computer Entertainment. The console was released on 3 December 1994 in Japan, 9 September 1995 in North America, 29 September 1995 in Europe, and 15 November 1995 in Australia. The console was the first of the PlayStation lineup of home video game consoles. It primarily competed with the Nintendo 64 and the Sega Saturn as part of the fifth generation of video game consoles.I still think there is real ingenuity in the Kula World game, especially how gravity is treated dynamically (few games do that outside the Gravity Rush series). But I’m not sure if I’d still have the same enthusiasm to play it these days! The game provides you with an amazing total of 170 levels across two game modes including: arcade and time trial. A unique dynamic of the game presents you with the opportunity to switch the direction that you are headed in on the final square of each maze, which really adds to the puzzle element of the game; making it rather confusing on some of the larger levels as it offers you a further three routes beyond the route that you have just taken and increases the number of routes available even further when there are multiple areas to each maze. This can make finding the collectables to increase your score and the multiple keys to open the exit of each level quite difficult at times. OPM Editors' Awards (Best Puzzle Game)".

Various elements and obstacles are introduced as one moves on to new levels, which means that the complexity and level of puzzle solving required gradually increases as the game progresses. The game involves making ingenious use of the various types of platforms and surrounding objects, from moving platforms and transporters to bouncing platforms and jumping pills.
