How to play Brick Breaker
Use a short break to learn the rhythm of Brick Breaker. Clear all forty-five bricks before losing three balls. Choose a clear next step rather than rushing through the instructions. Begin with the solo mode shown on the page. Look at what changes after your first action.
Single 45-brick layout, three balls.
Build a steady rhythm
Take enough time to read a new position. If a game has a timer, learn its controls first rather than searching for them during the round. Keep the objective visible.
Your goal
Clear all forty-five bricks before losing three balls. Read that aim before choosing your first action. Check the rules when you are unsure.
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. Keep the playing area visible while using these controls. Return to the rules if the result is unexpected.
A useful example
An edge hit sends the ball at a different angle. Use the example as a guide rather than a substitute for reading your board. Read the matching step again.
Watch out for this
Track its landing point, not only its current x-coordinate. Compare the situation with the worked example. Before your first action, say what you are trying to achieve. Then compare the result with the goal.
