Where it came from.
Blockbuster on the Microvision handheld, 1980: a paddle, a ball, a wall of bricks, and nothing else. Bricks of Zai keeps that heart and gives it eighteen new rooms to play in. The classics it borrows from, and why.
Brick-breaker, reimagined
A wall of brick-breaking boards, each one a love letter to a different corner of the arcade: Space Invaders, Frogger, Pong, and plenty more.
One paddle, eighteen ways to lose your ball. Swipe through a few.
Free on the App Store. Eighteen boards waiting.
Same paddle, same ball. Nothing else stays the same.
Your ball carries one element. Cross the river to switch, then come back for the rest.
The wall is a BASIC program. Only the glowing line breaks, and GOTO can send you anywhere.
Wells drift across the board and pull the ball off its line. Aim for where it will be, not where it is.
Ten kinds of brick turn up across the boards. Each one changes the next second of play.
Same game, bigger wall. Buy a board once and it is yours on every device you sign in to: progress and purchases follow your iCloud account.
The starter boards are free, and every game you finish pays out coins.
Premium boards cost 5,000 coins. Earn them by playing, or buy a pack if you would rather not wait.
One purchase, $2.99, yours for good. No subscription, no timer, no account.
