Brick Breaker
The classic breakout arcade game. Keep the ball in play, aim with the paddle, and catch power-ups to clear the board faster.
How to Play
- Move the paddle with the mouse, your finger, or the left and right arrow keys.
- Press Space or tap to launch the ball. Bounce it off the paddle to break the bricks.
- Where the ball hits the paddle sets its angle: near the edges sends it off sharply.
- Numbered bricks take that many hits. Orange ✸ bricks explode and break their neighbours too.
- Catch falling power-ups: M splits the ball into three, L gives a laser (Space or tap to fire), W widens the paddle, and + gives an extra life.
- Clear every brick to reach the next level. Press P to pause.
Tips & Strategy
- Aim for gaps at the sides. A ball trapped above the bricks clears them quickly.
- Save the laser for the last few hard-to-reach bricks.
- With multi-ball, follow the lowest ball, since that's the one about to be lost.
- Explosive bricks next to tough ones are worth targeting first.
