About

Brick Breaker

Features
Read full description

Drag to aim, let go, and a stream of balls pours out. They ricochet off the walls and chip away at numbered bricks, and each number shows how many hits a brick has left. Clear the board before it creeps down to your launcher. THE JOURNEY 300 levels across six worlds, from Neon City to Lava Core. 112 of them are pixel pictures you break apart: a robot, an octopus, a volcano, Saturn and more. Up to three stars on each. THE BOSSES Levels 10, 20, 30 and onward to 300 end in a boss with a face that reacts to every hit. • The Warden turns its ring of shields after each shot. • The Hive spits minions into your path. • The Bastion is armored top and bottom, so you bank shots off the walls to reach it. • The Overlord turns shields and spits minions at the same time. Smaller bosses show up in between. THE BRICKS Bomb bricks blow up everything around them. Laser bricks clear a whole row or column. Set one off next to another and the chain runs across the board. On some levels the rows slide sideways after every shot, so the gap you found moves. MORE TO PLAY • Endless: rows keep coming until one reaches the bottom. • Daily Challenge: a fresh board each day, with three tries. • One-Shot: 60 puzzles that need a single perfect angle. GEMS AND STYLE Pick up gems on the board, open a Star Chest every 25 stars, and spend gems on new balls and trails in the Gem Shop. GOOD TO KNOW This game shows no ads, so nothing breaks up a shot. It works without an internet connection, needs no account, and keeps your progress shot by shot. Runs at 120 Hz on ProMotion screens.
