How to play

Press

to launch the ball from the paddle at the bottom of the

screen, and then press

or

and

to move the paddle

and keep the ball in play.

If you miss the ball, and it falls off the bottom of the screen, you lose
a life. The number of lives remaining is shown on the bar at the
bottom left of the screen. Once you have no lives remaining, the
game ends. (If a multi-player game is being played, when a player has
missed the ball and lost a life, they should pass the phone to the next
player for their turn.)

You score points for every brick destroyed--the current score is
shown at the top right of the screen.

There are different types of brick, denoted by different colors. Some
will be destroyed by a single strike from the ball. Others require
multiple strikes, will reappear after a period of time, or can only be
destroyed by certain power-ups.

When you hit some types of brick, power-ups will be dropped. If you
catch these with the paddle, they can give you additional abilities
which will make the game easier. Usually, these only last for a short
period of time. Beware, however, some of the power-ups have a
negative effect which will make the game harder for a short time.
Some of the power-ups need to be activated once you have picked

them up--this is done by pressing

.

The different types of power-up can be identified by the colour of the
falling blocks--learn to recognize each type to maximise your score.
