How to play the brick breaker game
- Press Play Game, then Play.
- Drag on the board to aim. The dotted line shows where your shot goes and how it bounces off the first wall or brick.
- Let go to fire. All of your balls shoot out one after another in the same direction.
- Every hit takes 1 off the number on a brick. When it reaches 0, the brick breaks.
- When all the balls are back, the bricks move down one row and a new, stronger row appears at the top. Your next shot starts where the first ball landed.
- If a brick reaches the floor, the game is over. Try to beat your best level!
Bricks and items
| On the board | What it does |
|---|---|
| Square brick | Breaks after as many hits as the number on it. |
| Triangle brick | Works like a square brick, but its slanted side sends balls off at new angles. |
| Green ⊕ ring | +1 ball for your next shot. |
| Blue ↔ arrow | Horizontal laser: hits every brick in its row each time a ball passes. |
| Blue ↕ arrow | Vertical laser: hits every brick in its column each time a ball passes. |
| Red glow on the floor | Danger! A brick is one row away from ending the game. |
Brick numbers grow with the level, and from level 8 some bricks have double strength, so collecting balls early is the key to going far.
Tips for reaching a high level
- Always grab the rings. More balls means more damage every turn, and it adds up fast.
- Shoot into gaps. A ball that gets above the bricks bounces between them and the ceiling, hitting many times for free.
- Use shallow angles to bounce off the side walls and reach bricks hiding behind others.
- Clear the lowest row first when the red danger glow appears.
- Pass through lasers with lots of balls. Each ball fires the laser again.
- Mind your landing spot. The first ball to land decides where the next shot starts.

About brick breaker games
Brick breaker games go all the way back to the arcade classic Breakout, where you bounced a single ball with a paddle. The modern swipe brick breaker style, also known as balls and bricks, swaps the paddle for aiming: you shoot many balls at once, every brick shows how many hits it needs, and the whole wall moves down after each turn. Brick Blitz is our own take on this popular genre, with glowing neon bricks, a bounce preview that helps you line up trick shots, lasers that sweep whole rows and columns, and triangle bricks that make every turn a little different. It is easy to pick up for a quick break and hard to put down once you start chasing a new best level.
Brick breaker game FAQ
Is Brick Blitz free to play?
Yes. Brick Blitz is a completely free brick breaker game. There is nothing to buy, no account and no download.
How do you play a swipe brick breaker game?
Drag on the board to aim and let go to fire all of your balls. Each time a ball hits a brick, the number on the brick goes down by one, and at zero it breaks. After every turn the bricks move down one row. The game ends when a brick reaches the floor.
How do I get more balls?
Hit the green ring items with your balls. Every ring you collect adds one ball to your next shot, so the more rings you grab, the stronger you get.
What do the blue arrow items do?
They are lasers. A horizontal arrow hits every brick in its row and a vertical arrow hits every brick in its column, every time a ball passes through it.
Can I speed up my shot?
