How to play
emoji_eventsGoal
Bounce the ball off your paddle to smash every brick. Clear the wall to move up a level — the levels never run out.
gamepadControls
- Drag anywhere to slide the paddle, or use the left and right arrow keys
- Tap, or press Space, to launch the ball off the paddle
- Where the ball strikes the paddle steers where it flies — hit it with the edge to send it sharply sideways
- Pause with the button or the P key
lightbulbTips
- Tougher bricks take more than one hit and are worth more points
- Every brick that breaks before the ball comes back to the paddle joins a chain — each one in the run is worth more, up to four times
- Aim for a gap in the wall and let the ball rattle around behind it
- Catch the capsules a broken brick drops: a wider paddle, extra balls, a slower ball, an extra life, or a cannon that fires from both ends of the paddle for a while
- The ball speeds up each level, so keep the paddle under it and stay calm
- You have three lives — a ball lost below the paddle costs one
