Gameplay

The main purpose of these trials is to guide an orb through five towers, known as City I (very easy), City II (easy), City III (intermediate), City IV (hard) and City V (very hard). With the help of his body and hands the player creates slopes in order to make roll the orb to hit the mystical cages of energy and avoid gargoyles. The player's image is captured by the camera and mapped on the tower's mosaic-like surface that make up each course. Each player motions rise up the tiles which forms slopes across the surface, these slopes are used to control the direction of the orb.

There are four styles of trials: Trial of Value, Trial of Caution, Trial of Speed, and Trial of Control.
