Test your timing and reflexes with Bricks DEMOLITION

Bricks DEMOLITION is a fast-paced, colorful brick-busting arcade game reminiscent of arcade classics like Arkanoid. This free mobile game starts you off with a bouncing ball and a paddle; your job is to bounce the ball into rows of colorful bricks and smash them without letting the ball bounce off the screen. As the game goes on, levels get faster and more complex; you’ll need all your skill and a little help to get through the over 400 challenges.

A classic arcade game revisited

Bricks DEMOLITION is a solid entry in a classic genre. Everything you’d expect from this type of game is present; the increasing speed and difficulty, the frustrating near-misses and the range of powerups that can help you take out huge swathes of blocks at once. If you’re stuck on a difficult level you can also one of your wild cards — these power-ups let you skip a level, but they’re scarce, so use them only when you’re really stuck. The paddle controls are sensitive and the light touch needed might take some getting used to.

Simple, brick-blasting fun

Bricks DEMOLITION isn’t complex, and it doesn’t deviate far from the founding game of this genre, Arkanoid. But it’s well-executed, has plenty of content and is free (although the ads that support it can sometimes be noisy and annoying).
