About

Impact Master

Features
Read full description

Impact Master, the rules are simple. Draw a direction on the screen, launch the ball, and hit the target after multiple collisions. It seems easy, right? But it's not that simple to play. You need the optimal speed, the most suitable angle, and the best timing to slide the screen. Some items can't be collided with, some will capture your ball, some will force the ball to change direction, and some will slow down the ball's movement speed... There are 360 levels, some are easy and some are difficult, but they are all full of fun.
