## What is Brick Breaker?

Drop one heavy ball and smash a rising stack of blocks.

Every turn, the stack climbs a row. Drag to aim, let go, and watch your ball ricochet through the blocks. Every few hits in a single drop it gets heavier and hits harder, so one great shot can tear through the whole board. Let the blocks reach the top and the run is over.

QUICK TO PLAY, HARD TO PUT DOWN
• One-thumb aim and drop
• Runs last a few minutes, perfect for a quick break
• Big combos, screen shake, haptics and satisfying smashes

PICKUPS THAT CHANGE EVERY DROP
• Bomb: blasts every block around it
• Laser: wipes out a whole row
• Pierce: your ball smashes straight through
• Split: two balls for the rest of the drop
• Hold: the stack doesn't rise next turn
• Double: your next drop scores double
• +1 rings make your ball heavier for good

UPGRADES THAT STICK
Every run earns coins. Spend them on permanent upgrades: a heavier start, shields, quicker combos, stronger continues and more pickups. No real money, ever.

DESIGNED FOR EVERYONE
Every block shows how many hits it needs, and tougher blocks change shape as well as colour. Every pickup has its own shape and icon, so you never need to tell colours apart.

GAME CENTER
Climb the high-score leaderboard and unlock achievements.

Brick Drop is free and supported by ads. There are no in-app purchases.

## Version history (last 5 releases)

### 1.1.3 — 2026-11-06

Store listing refresh so Brick Drop is easier to find. Same heavy-ball brick smashing, upgrades and Game Center.

### 1.1.2 — 2026-11-04

Continue vs Drop again are easier to tell apart (outline vs prominent), and HUD icon buttons meet a 44pt target. Ball skins remain told apart by shape and pattern, not colour alone.

### 1.1.1 — 2026-11-02

Fixed: watching an ad to continue now resumes your run instead of starting a new game. Small stability improvements.

### 1.1 — 2026-10-28

Brick Drop 1.1: iPad and iPhone Duo support, a daily challenge with its own leaderboard, ball skins, spiked boss stacks, new achievements, continue once, haptics, and a gentler early game.

### 1.0 — 2026-10-28

No release notes.
