Where's the Ball?
I wanted to love this game, I truly did. It has all the right elements going for it. An interesting hook on the genre (The player has a paddle at both the bottom and the top of the screen), a fantastic art style, solid music and sound effects, and it's pretty easy on the battery as well! Unfortunately, the game sort of falls apart in the mechanics department.
Many of the surfaces in the game are angled or curved, which means that estimating trajectories can be somewhat difficult. But where the game really fails to impress is the paddle- which has an odd habit of reflecting the ball in random directions. On top of this, each level is timed. Some of these times are quite adequate, some are overly forgiving, and some are nearly impossible.
I have always appreciated the meditative nature of the brick breaking game. Unfortunately, none of that managed to make it through the Brickies translation. Between the complete lack of precision controls and the poorly implemented timer, the game becomes more frustration than fun.
Decent breakout game with some flaws
The good news is that the game works for the most part. You bounce the ball and hit the bricks and hit them all to clear a stage. Aside from some stuttering (playing on iPhone 4) the game works. It has varying level designs and different power ups, which unfortunately make or break your game. Once you've unlocked them all, some levels require you to get a specific power up in order to beat it because of how the level is designed, and because power ups are randomized in appearance and location, this can lead to many do overs. Luckily, there is an endless mode where you can play until the time runs out, getting more time for more bricks broken. (More like time attack but whatever) I reccommend this game, it's very fun and a good time waster, but it could stand to benefit from some tweaks to the game play.
Simply complex
This game is great to play on and off like during a break, lunch, waiting and pretty much anything with cracks of time. If your looking for a game to win quickly and feel good about winning, then it's probably not for you. Honestly try it out till you start to feel that frustration and if you do not like that feeling from this game just press your home button and delete the game and look for another one. When I play: I play without getting extra time in those ads, so if you want to play and not get frustrated then watch an ad to get some more time when your close to winning . When you add up all the ads you watch you realize you can be playing another game much better that is less time consuming. Well hope that helps anyone have a great year :)
