How to play Brick Breaker
Choose a round of Brick Breaker and settle into its rules. Clear all forty-five bricks before losing three balls. Choose a clear next step rather than rushing through the instructions. Treat the first round as a chance to learn the controls. Keep the game area visible while you use its controls.
Single 45-brick layout, three balls.
Read before acting
Read one step at a time and try it on the playing area. Match the instruction to the control you use. Keep the objective visible.
Your goal
Clear all forty-five bricks before losing three balls. An attractive position is not enough unless the goal is met. Start with a deliberate move.
Step by step
- Start the ball.
- Move the paddle to intercept it.
- Paddle contact changes the outgoing angle.
- Restart a remaining ball after a loss.
Controls
Pointer, arrow keys or held Left/Right. Start / pause and New round are available. Use the control method described here for this activity. Return to the rules if the result is unexpected.
A useful example
An edge hit sends the ball at a different angle. Your next round may have a different position, so inspect it before acting. Consider the next action carefully.
Watch out for this
Track its landing point, not only its current x-coordinate. Check the rule before repeating the action. Locate the buttons and input area before beginning a long round. Use the on-screen labels to avoid an accidental restart.
