The game, which will see you rolling boulders during different periods in history (hence the title Rock of Ages--geddit?), is a fun mix of Marble Madness and tower defense where you have to destroy your opponent's door before they can smash yours. The early levels we played were set in ancient Greece with Sisyphus, the mythical king who was punished by the gods to constantly roll a boulder up a hill. In Rock of Ages, though, he fights back by rolling boulders of his own.
You won't have much time to lay down defenses, as your opponent will relentlessly roll boulders towards your door without any care about whether you've had enough time to consider your options. We rolled our boulder, and in the 20 seconds or so it took to build another one, quickly tried to place some towers and cows to steer any opposing rocks aside. Unfortunately, our opponent Agememnon was too quick, and managed to bust down our gate.
