Brick Buster
Break every brick, keep the ball alive, and clear a small wall in three minutes.
If the game does not load, open it directly.
How to play Brick Buster
Drag a finger anywhere on the playfield and the paddle follows. Tap once to launch the ball.
Bounce the ball into the coloured bricks. Every brick you clear moves you closer to the next level.
You have three balls. If the ball falls past the paddle, the next one launches from the centre.
Clear all twelve small levels, or chase a higher score before the balls run out.
Tips for a better run
- Aim with the edge of the paddle rather than its centre to change the angle.
- Keep the paddle under the ball early; a long rally is worth more than a risky angle.
- Clear the side columns first so the ball can travel behind the wall.
