Summary

A Breakout-inspired Arkanoid-style game that sets itself apart by positioning the bat on the side of the screen (with a choice between left and right), rather than at the bottom like most similar titles. The game features various special bricks, but unlike in Arkanoid, these bricks don’t drop toward the bat. Instead, when struck, they flip to reveal a letter representing a power-up—such as E (extends the bat), C (allows you to catch the ball), M (launches a missile), B (Bomb, which explodes upon contact with the ball, clearing several bricks), and X (grants an extra life). The enemies and obstacles are more diverse than in Arkanoid. Some freeze your bat, while others actually chew up your ball and spit out the core to attack you!
