Brick Smash
Steer the paddle to bounce the ball into a wall of bricks. Catch power-up capsules, survive three lives and clear level after level.
How to play
- Move your mouse, finger or the arrow keys to slide the paddle. Tap, click or press Space to launch the ball.
- Bounce the ball into the bricks to smash them. Where the ball meets the paddle decides the angle it leaves at.
- Catch falling capsules: W widens the paddle for a while and L gives you an extra life.
- Clear every brick to move up a level. You lose a life when the ball falls past the paddle, and the game ends after the third.
Tips and strategy
- Hit the ball with the edge of the paddle to send it sideways and reach bricks in the corners.
- Try to carve a tunnel up one side. A ball trapped above the wall clears many bricks quickly.
- Higher levels add tougher top-row bricks that need two hits.
- Always keep the paddle under the ball first, then think about the angle.
FAQ
- Can I play with the keyboard only?
- Yes. Arrow keys move the paddle and Space launches the ball.
- What do the capsules do?
- W makes the paddle wider for about twelve seconds. L adds a life, up to five.
- Does the ball get faster?
- Each level launches the ball a little faster, up to a fixed cap.
