Bring this focus to a round

Before your first action, say what you are trying to achieve. Then compare the result with the goal. Make the next step deliberately.

What the game asks you to do

Clear all forty-five bricks before losing three balls. Read that aim before choosing your first action. The example below illustrates a decision.

Follow these playing steps

  1. Start the ball.
  2. Move the paddle to intercept it.
  3. Paddle contact changes the outgoing angle.
  4. Restart a remaining ball after a loss.

Controls

Pointer, arrow keys or held Left/Right. Start / pause and New round are available. Keep the playing area visible while using these controls. Use the visible help when you are unsure of the next input.

One way to understand the rules

An edge hit sends the ball at a different angle. Your next round may have a different position, so inspect it before acting. Keep the controls nearby.

Where a round can go wrong

Track its landing point, not only its current x-coordinate. A different version of the game may use a different rule. Take enough time to read a new position. If a game has a timer, learn its controls first rather than searching for them during the round.
