About Block Breaker
Each level is done once you clear every brick on the screen. It is a straight block breaking game built on the same rules as Breakout and Arkanoid.
There are 150 levels in total. The first ones use simple brick layouts, and later ones turn into complex geometric shapes that take more careful aim to clear.

The game gets harder in two ways as you advance. The ball moves faster, which gives you less time to get the paddle under it, and the brick patterns get tougher to break apart. It stays a classic arcade setup the whole way through, just with less room for mistakes.
Along the way you can catch power-ups with your paddle. Collecting these special items unlocks extra features that help you break through the bricks.
Quick summary
- Each level starts with a wall of bricks above you and your paddle at the bottom.
- You keep the ball bouncing off the paddle so it smashes into the bricks.
- You catch power-ups as they come to unlock extra features.
- Clearing every brick moves you on, all the way through 150 levels.
Key features
- 150 levels, from simple layouts to complex geometric brick patterns.
- The ball speeds up and the patterns get tougher as you go.
- Power-ups that you catch with the paddle.
- Plays with arrow keys or the mouse on desktop, and on phones and tablets.
Tips & tricks
- Keep your eyes on the ball rather than the bricks, since it gets faster in later levels and you need to react quickly.
- Try the mouse if the arrow keys feel too slow once the ball speeds up.
- Grab power-ups when you can safely reach them, but never let the ball get past you to chase one.
