BreakAway is a breakout game where things quickly get out of hand. This idle breakout game was designed specifically for your wrist. Bricks don't break themselves — unless you've got WristBreaker. Unlock a growing arsenal of balls, each with unique abilities, and watch them tear through endless waves of bricks while you go about your day. Tap to deal bonus damage. Upgrade your balls. Ascend to grow stronger. Repeat. IDLE GAMEPLAY, EPIC PROGRESSION Your balls keep bouncing and breaking bricks even when you're not watching. Come back to a screen full of upgrades, earn Ascend currency from boss levels, and push further than ever before. 8 UNIQUE BALL TYPES • Basic — your reliable workhorse • Power — charges up over time for massive hits, then resets • Speed — gains momentum with every brick it shatters • Heavy — slow but devastating • Sniper — auto-targets the nearest brick every bounce • Cluster — explodes into a swarm of mini balls on contact • Wrecking — plows straight through bricks without bouncing • Poison — applies stacking damage over time to every brick it touches DEEP UPGRADE SYSTEMS Spend in-game money on ball upgrades between every level. Pick game-changing perks after each wave. Ascend to unlock permanent upgrades that carry across every run. Boss levels drop rare Ascend currency — defeat them to grow your power permanently. BOSS LEVELS Every few levels a boss wave hits. Bricks are harder and rarer — but the Ascend currency rewards are worth the grind. POWER BOOST One-time purchase to permanently double the speed and damage of every ball, remove the tap cooldown, and supercharge your run from the very first level. Built exclusively for Apple Watch. No phone required.
