About this game
Bounce the ball off your paddle and smash every brick. It speeds up each stage
What this game is
Bounce the ball off the paddle at the bottom and smash the bricks above. Clear them all to reach the next stage, where the layout changes and the ball gets a little faster.
The paddle follows your finger or mouse from side to side. You have three lives, and each ball that slips past the paddle costs one.
How to play
- Where it hits sets the angle
- A hit near the middle of the paddle sends the ball nearly straight up, and a hit near the end sends it off at a sharp angle. Use it to aim for gaps.
- Get it behind the wall
- Punch a hole through the bricks and the ball bounces between the ceiling and the top row, taking out several at once.
- Every stage has its own shape
- Five layouts come in turn: full wall, checkerboard, pyramid, four blocks and frame. After the fifth they loop around with a faster ball.
Frequently asked questions
- How does the score go up?
- Each brick is worth 10 × the stage number, and clearing a stage adds 100.
- How do I play on a computer?
- Move the mouse or use the arrow keys, and launch with a click or the space bar.
- What if I switch apps?
- The ball pauses while the page is hidden and carries on when you come back.
