Prism Breakout
Read full descriptionHide full description
Prism Breakout is an original neon-arcade game built for one-handed landscape play on iPhone. A paddle and a glowing energy ball sit below; above, a wall of interlocking four-cell pieces descends. Clear the wall before it reaches the line. Hit a piece dead-on to break it. Match your ball's color to a piece for bonus points, chain clears to build combos, and land high-scoring critical hits. Catch power-ups to change your run — widen the paddle, speed up the ball, split into multiball, and more. HOW TO PLAY - Move the paddle to keep the energy ball in play and aim your bounces. - Tap anywhere to launch; the paddle follows your touch. - Break whole pieces with direct hits, and don't let the wall reach the danger line. - Match the ball's color to a piece to score more, and chain clears for combos. POWER-UPS - Wide Paddle — a wider paddle that's easier to rally with. - Fast Ball — a quicker, higher-pressure ball. - Double Score — points count double while it's active. - Big Ball — a larger ball that clears more. - Multiball — several balls in play at once. - Shield — a safety barrier below the paddle. - Laser Paddle — fire from your paddle to break pieces. - Extra Life — one more life. MAKE IT YOURS Unlock and equip cosmetics — ball skins, avatars, ball effects, and animated backgrounds — and choose your soundtrack from a selection of original music tracks. OPTIONAL WORLD LEADERBOARD Play the whole game without creating an account. If you want to compete, opt in to the online World Leaderboard by choosing a public display name — your best scores, with your equipped ball skin and avatar, appear in the global rankings.
