General information
Ricochet: Lost Worlds is a singleplayer flip screen and side view paddle game in the Ricochet series.
Ricochet: Lost Worlds used to have a feature where players can download and share player-made levels all across the world for several years, however on December 7, 2017, all forums for Ricochet were shut down due to the servers not being sustainable to run anymore, assuming that the player today is interested in downloading custom made levels, there is an unofficial website where the player can choose to download said levels and install them manually.
