Your goal
Clear all forty-five bricks before losing three balls. Use the instructions to see which actions move you towards it. Follow this game’s rules rather than another version’s.
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. Read a button’s label before selecting it. Use the visible help when you are unsure of the next input.
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. Read the matching step again.
Watch out for this
Track its landing point, not only its current x-coordinate. Take a moment to reassess the position before continuing. After a move, check what changed. Decide which rule explains the new state before acting again.
