Brick Blast puts a responsive paddle in your hands and 25 handcrafted walls of candy-coloured bricks in front of you. Tougher bricks take several hits, steel bricks never break, and lucky breaks drop power-ups: a wider paddle, extra balls, a slower ball or a spare life. Where you strike the ball on the paddle decides its angle, so careful aim clears levels faster than frantic chasing.
How to play Brick Blast
Goal: Clear every breakable brick in each of the 25 levels without losing all of your lives.
Keyboard & mouse
- Move the mouse, or use Left/Right or A/D, to move the paddle
- Click or Space to launch
- P or Escape to pause
Phone & tablet
- Drag anywhere on the game to move the paddle
- Tap to launch the ball
Rules
- The ball starts on your paddle; launch it when you are ready.
- Hitting the ball near the paddle edges sends it at a sharper angle.
- Darker bricks need more than one hit; grey steel bricks never break and do not need clearing.
- Catch falling power-ups: wide paddle (W), multi-ball (M), slow ball (S) or extra life (+).
- Earn up to 3 stars per level by keeping your lives; pick any unlocked level from the level select.
- You lose a life when every ball in play falls past the paddle.
Tips and strategy
- Aim for gaps at the sides to get the ball bouncing above the bricks.
- Keep the paddle under the ball rather than chasing power-ups recklessly.
- With multi-ball active, follow the lowest ball first.
- Use steel bricks as bumpers: bank the ball off them into hard-to-reach corners.
