Perspex, three tier game with counters?

[Marine Boy]

Something on the boardgames forum reminded me of a toy I used to enjoy a lot. Three, (or four?) perspex 'boards' or 'trays' were fixed together, one above the other, joined at the corners if I remember correctly. There were little counter-sunk circles that you placed your counters in, and you played the game like a sort of 3-D noughts and crosses, or 'Connect 4'.

Anyone help?

Thanks so much huggie but this isn't it. The playing pieces were definitely counters, not balls, and the little circles where you placed them were countersunk spaces, not holes. The fixings were at the corners - sort of cylindrical. I can see it so well in my mind. We need a drawing facility on here! lol

EDIT, not the one these are more lke sticky out pegs you press them onto

Not 'Space Lines'. The counters were bigger (as you mention in your EDIT) and the fixings different. I feel bad saying it's not the one, huggie

Thank you so much for trying.

My school had a set like that, but the trays weren't clear & the box had 3 gloved hands in the colours of the playing pieces.
