Great arcade game
(Pros and cons at the bottom. Reviewed on an iPhone 5)
Just finished the challenges (3 stars for all 60) and have played some arcade mode, for a combined total of almost nine hours in the game. I must say, it is really fun.
The mechanics to hit the ball in the direction you want are spot on, so skill does play a factor and you will be able to pull off some awesome combos after playing for a while. Luck only plays a part when it comes to which power ups you get from the special power up blocks, but this makes each time you play levels with these blocks unique, so that's a good thing.
The graphics are intentionally old school, really making it feel like a game you could find at an arcade and throw countless quarters into. There's some music but it seems to not really play during levels... I never really minded, though. The sound effects are standard, not spectacular.
Has GameCenter integration, with achievements for doing the challenges, arcade mode, and more. Leaderboards for challenge mode and swing it mode. Not optimized for iPhone 5 :c
Pros:
+Fun, solid brick-breaking mechanics makes for excellent gameplay
+Achievements and leaderboards
+Pleasant, nostalgic graphics
+Multiple modes, lots to do
Cons:
-Not optimized for iPhone 5
-No GameCenter leaderboards for arcade stages (although the challenge mode is more fun anyway)
This is a great brick-breaking game, so if you feel like playing one, this is definitely worth your time.

Awesome Tablet Game!
This is almost as good as the original Bricks of Atlantis and Bricks of Egypt games for PC and Mac computers. It's more difficult to use touch than mouse for this game, but I suppose it is just a matter of getting used to the play. Loads of fun!
Great game, hard to play on the phone
This bricks game is excellent on a tablet--not so much on the phone because the small screen size.
Loving it
Awesome love it. Lots of fun. But i did just get it. Looking forward to see what's to come.
Awesome
Lots of fun
Exceptional
An enjoyable brick breaker. A high quality and well made game. One of the best of its type.

My kids loved a game similar to this when they were small. Now that they r teens, this game is one of few that keep arguments down during long road trips :).
Great boredom game!!
Nice little game to pass the time on toilet, adverts, you get the idea. Simple easy to play. Only gripe u only get 1 LIFE!!
Excellent game
Good fun. Very well put together game. As much fun on the iPhone as it would be on a big screen - maybe more. No problems with the app. Glad I have it. Nice time waster.
