HOW TO PLAY
Aim your bounces and catch power-ups
The ball bounces off walls and bricks. Where it hits the paddle determines its next direction, so aim toward the edges to reach hard-to-hit bricks. Silver bricks take multiple hits, gold bricks remain solid obstacles, and the bosses on levels 5 and 10 take many hits.
- Three difficulty settings and levels that gradually get faster.
- Randomized symmetrical layouts; on every third level, a cyan-marked brick section glides from side to side.
- Eleven temporary capsules plus a separate ball-evolution system: there is a 5% scanner drop chance per level, and it highlights bonus bricks for the next 10 hits; choose an upgrade after a level, raise it to Epic rank, or fuse compatible abilities.
- Scoring and combos; personal and server-wide records are saved for signed-in players.
- Two bosses with health bars on level 5 and the final level 10.
- Keyboard, mouse, touch, and gamepad controls.
- Russian and English (US); game progress and settings stay in your browser.
The game and sound effects run in your browser. When signed in, an improved personal score is sent to the server and can set the server-wide record; settings and saved progress stay in this browser’s local storage.
