    I have a 500 also with marble maddness, and have gotten up to the
    6th game, 
    (platforms floating in space), 
    I have come close to the goal but have not made it yet... Whats

1517.3You win. {period}MDKCSW::DAVISThat&#039;s not a BUG, it&#039;s a FEATURE!Tue Aug 30 1988 14:175
I was disappointed to find out that once you complete the last level (the
tiles floating in space) that you "win the ultimate race."  That's it.
The end.  You can play again if you want.  :-(

1517.4High score trickLEMAN::BLANCPhil Lausanne-CH 31-AUG-1988 09:26Wed Aug 31 1988 04:3511
    A little trick for you to have a lot of points....
    At the beginnig of the game, select the two players options, but
    play only with one, the front port for example...
    Each time the ball of your oponnent is going out of screen and coming
    on the bottom, you win some points more.
    When you complete a level, replug your mouse to the other port so
    that you move now the other ball (This is for not having a game
    over for the other player)....
    I am also disappointed that you cannot store the high score
