Here is another clone of the famous hit-bricks-with-the-ball-off-the-paddle game. Which is a genre that nobody tires of.
The graphics in games like this can often be “adequate” meaning, they look like bricks, it looks like a ball and it looks like a paddle. It’s a shame that when things like that happen, the graphics never turn out as good as they could be.
So, in a nutshell, if you’ve played a break out game, you’ve played this one. And it’s sad to say, this one offers nothing new to the genre. The paddle is wobbly and the aiming is, for the most part, directionless. It’s pretty much a guessing game.
As for the sounds, well, a metallic “tinking” sound is not too exciting at the best of times and hearing it over and over again really removes whatever charm it had to begin with.
So on the whole; this is a seemingly uninspired remake. One which could be avoided and nothing would be lost.
