Masonicon 0 point. I had this issue, turns out that daemon tools didn't like mounting from a file structure with a space in it.

We may have multiple downloads for few games when different versions are available. It is only available in single-player mode and cannot be played online. The puzzle is in the configuration of the path that a ball must travel; it can be changed as desired by the user.
There are different checkpoints on a single level, and all of them are plotted at some distance. Players can use either a mouse or a keyboard to control the ball, which must be moved along a course without letting it fall off the screen. There are also many physical obstacles and hurdles in the way to the goal. The fun part about this game is that you get to play as a ball instead of a character, as you are given a ball to navigate and roll through each level of the puzzle.

The unusual concept is nicely executed and enjoyable. The object of the game is to steer a ball using your keyboard across twelve vertigo-inspiring levels that become increasingly difficult as you progress.
The final levels are darn difficult, requiring careful thought and surgical-like manoeuvrings to solve. It was developed by Cyparade, published by Atari and first released in Europe on 2 April The gameplay is similar to Marble Madness: The player controls a ball via mouse and keyboard that they must move along a course without falling off the screen.
In the game, the player can change the ball's material with special changers throughout the game's 12 levels. It can be transformed to a wood, rock, or paper ball. The wooden ball is very stable and can be used for several puzzles in the game. It is the very first ball, used in the easy levels. The rock ball is extremely heavy, and can be accidentally rolled off an edge very easily, but this ball can easily push down boxes and bridges.
In this single-player release, you steer a ball over complicated mechanisms and tortuous passages of all sorts through a tranquil cloud world high in the air. While undertaking this task, you need to overcome all sorts of mechanical obstacles, such as seesaws, wooden suspension bridges, jumps and drops, pendulums, sandbags, tilting ramps, ventilators, twisting steel rails, swings, push-blocks, and trap doors.
Your goal is to get to the end of each level without having the ball fall off the structure and into oblivion. The developers treat you to twelve increasingly challenging levels, each quite lengthy and intricate, presenting more complex puzzles and mechanisms than its predecessor.
What is immediately apparent is that, unlike many offerings of this type, Ballance demands at least as much in the way of intellectual puzzle solving ability as it does in the way of quick reflexes and hand-eye coordination. Although you do indeed need to be extremely physically careful in guiding the ball through the maze-like structures, you find you need considerable strategy to solve the navigational puzzles you face.
A fun example of the interesting decision making occurs on level seven, where you end up dropping onto a circular platform with walls with seemingly nowhere to go. A solution comes only after you realize that you are on an elevator and need to knock the walls over the edge to lighten the platform so you can rise to a different level. In the process of moving around the labyrinthine structures, a sound knowledge of the laws of physics would be a real asset.
Friction, gravity, inertia, velocity, and acceleration make all the difference between success and failure. The developers incorporate an absolutely precise and highly realistic physics model.
For example, if you knock a pile of crates situated in a given position off a ledge, the manner in which they fall off is exactly a function of the speed, angle, and construction material of the approaching ball. You need to constantly calculate what the limits are on your ability to overcome predicaments that on the surface seem physically impossible.
Perhaps the single most innovative feature in Ballance is your ability to transform the ball into different materials with very different physical properties. Three transformations are possible: paper, which is light but unstable and lacking force; stone, which is powerful but heavy and unwieldy; and wood, which is a compromise between the two extremes.
To change the ball's composition, you steer it onto transformers located at various places on the structures. Successfully controlling and steering each type of ball requires major adjustments on your part. Often at any given spot you have a choice of readily available materials for the ball, and you have to think very carefully about which material to use in what situation.
You may find out after rolling along for a bit that you made the wrong choice, such as when you encounter a ventilator but do not have a paper ball the only one light enough to rise on the air flow ; in this case you have to retrace your steps to the closest appropriate transformer to make a switch.
Not all of the elegant components of Ballance are immediately available from the outset. When you begin, only the first level is open, and each succeeding level becomes available only after you successfully complete the preceding one.
