What Marble Madness is
Marble Madness is an arcade game developed by Atari Games and released in 1987. It was published by Electronic Arts. It is available on DOS only.
The premise, in the publisher's words
The idea of this arcade game is deceptively simple: Guide a marble down a path without hitting any obstacles or straying off the course. The game is viewed from an isometric perspective, which makes it harder to stay focused on the direction the ball is to follow. There are tight corridors to follow and enemies to avoid. There is a 2-player mode in which players must race to the finish; otherwise you're racing against the clock.
How it plays
It is played from a bird view / isometric perspective. It is a single-player game with no multiplayer component.
What it launched against
Marble Madness launched on 31 December 1987, within three weeks of Wasteland, Final Fantasy, Nebulus and Head Over Heels.
Released around the same time: Wasteland, Final Fantasy, Nebulus, Head Over Heels.
