However, there should be no doubt that this type of game will be seen over and over once the App Store is available.

Slower paced and requiring more skill, overall. And it goes well beyond just a ball moving through a maze; the mercury bead can split into multiple beads and they can take on different colors, and switches / exits are color-sensitive. For these reasons, I find it much more engrossing as well as nicer to look at. I do hope a port comes. I find Mercury to be much more "intricate" a game.

The only real difference between the two is that SMB use a ball whereas this game uses a drop of mercury. Plus, they have already announced Super Monkey Ball is being produced.
