Subject: Please help! What was this game called??
Picture that game "screwball scramble", it was the same principle, except it was this tall yellow volcanic mountain, at the top was this revolving robotic "king kong" character. The aim of the game was to navigate a metal ball to the top of the mountain. It had such hazards as a moving bridge, steps, and a cool part wear the ball seemed to travel up a wall, via the use of a magnetic, but it looked like the ball floated to the top. Cool game, but WHAT WAS IT CALLED!!!

I don't know the game, but I would not be surprised if it were called "King of the Mountain" or "King of the Hill." It sounds like a take-off of the game of the same name where a person stands on a hill and others try to knock him off. Your game has a "King" Kong and you try to knock him off the "mountain" with a metal ball.
I know it's a long shot, but I thought I'd try. :)
