Brick Breaker
The 1976 arcade original. Deflect the ball into a wall of bricks. Top rows score more — tunnel up to chase a high score. Three lives, endless levels.

How It Works
deflect the ball into the bricks above and don't let it past your paddle.
Objective
Clear every brick to advance to the next level. Each level adds a fresh row and bumps ball speed by roughly 6% — by level 6 you'll be reacting instead of planning.
Controls
On your phone
drag anywhere inside the arena to slide the paddle — your finger doesn't have to be on the paddle itself. Tap to launch a stuck ball.
On desktop
← → or A D to slide. The mouse also works — the paddle tracks your cursor. SPACE launches a stuck ball.
Scoring
Three lives, no continues — the run ends the moment the third ball drops past your paddle.
Tips
Scoring
Brick Breaker is a paddle-and-ball classic. Score is driven by the colour rows you clear and the wall-clear bonus that scales with level.
How the score is calculated
Each brick’s value depends on which row it sits in — top rows are worth more, encouraging you to tunnel up and bounce the ball off the back wall. Clearing the entire wall pays a level bonus and drops a fresh wall.
What ends the run
The round ends when you’ve lost all three balls (one per missed paddle catch). Levels are endless — the only ceiling on your score is how long you can keep the ball alive.
