Great for training reflexes
I love this game; great option is I'm able to adjust the speed of the ball. This is the only breakout game I found to do this. I'm 61 and started slow and gradually speed up as I get better. Out of hundreds of games I own this is in the top 5. Hope they keep adding levels. Just jumping several speeds can make it challenging. Someday I might be able to crank it all the way up. Keep up the good work. Can be habit forming.
Great Oldtime Favorite
An old favorite for sure. Too bad you have to pay for extra levels though. I wasn't happy with just 10 levels so I had to cough up for the extra ones. Over all I give it 5 stars and play this game a lot and would recommend it to friends.
Perfect
I am an 80s gamer, Atari 2600 in '81, and to control the speed like Keanu dodging bullets in the Matrix is a nice touch especially when encountering a couple dozen balls, so if you have been disappointed in the classic remakes like me you won't be here, it is just a game you can play for a few minutes here and there.
Great Block Breaking Game
This is a fun and inexpensive way to play a Block Breaker game. Plays just like the old, original game but with a lot of extras. There are in-app purchases but they're one-time and inexpensive. I'll think you'll enjoy this game if you're looking for something that is fast and fun to play!
I love it
I'm not a big game player but sometimes I just need some downtime. This game keeps me on my toes and at 65 years old I'm sure it helps with my hand eye coordination and whatever else. I don't have anything negative to say about it. Oh except that we need some new challenges. Thanks
Great Game
I had this game on my old Atari 400 and spent many hours playing it. This is an updated version that plays without any glitches and I've purchased every bonus pack offered. Love some of the modern touches (acid and fire balls) and the x4 and x12 bonus bricks.
Better than the original Breakout
I liked the fact that I could download a free version of the game so I could decide if I liked it or not. I did and ended buying additional packs to add to the base game. Breakout remains what it's always been, just good clean fun with no "blood, guts or gore.
Fun Game, a Blast from the Past
Super fun game! Please always have this game available in the App Store. Times will change, programming will change but this game must always exist, for years to come. I would love to see more and more variations.
Way good
This is so addicting it's sick. I love it. The one thing I can suggest to the makers is to have a way that you can earn or win more lives. Not buy em; that's cheating - EARN em. Like: if you get thru 4 levels you earn an extra life- how bout that?
BREAKOUT
This game is one of my all time favorites. I started by playing this game on the Atari when I was young. This version completely embodies the Atari version with more visually appealing graphics to go through. Keep up the good work!!
Not a bad game
When you have a 10 in one level is fine especially with the bonus and special power ups but when you have to unlock the rest by using an iTunes gift card or using PayPal then that's a problem.
Good game
It’s a great game but a few stages of the game are almost impossible to beat. On the 40 game stage 23 is very difficult to get the ball in and when I did, it came back out. Several times I lost 7 balls on this stage alone. It needs to be fixed to fairly play the game.
Wishing
I wish there was a way to obtain more lives mid-game. I wish you didn’t have to start back at level one when you die. I wish there were more level options. Otherwise, fantastic and addictive game.
Needs fixed!
Something is driving me crazy on this game. When you have multiple balls on the screen and when you break the last brick on the screen at the precise moment that one of the other balls exits at the bottom, the game gets confused and thinks you lost your ball even though there are others left and it take a ball away from your balls remaining (when in fact you actually made it through successfully at that level). Then at the next level when you begin, it starts with two balls instead of one. This results in a lost ball that you shouldn’t have had done. This glitch needs to be fixed and an update sent out. Thank you.
