Used to be good. After most recent update there are now ads that didn't used to be there. After I declined to let them harvest additional data, one game feature stopped working. I can no longer fast forward in game, so any level above 100 now takes way too long. I love this game and used to play for hours and have gotten to levels beyond 2000. Unfortunately this is no longer possible as it would take over 10 minutes to play a single level that high without the fast forward feature. You suck

This might be a nitpick, but why do I have to tap the pause button a thousand times to get it to work?? Super annoying. I have also noticed that some bricks disappear even when they have not been hit, which I honestly don't mind as it has kept me from losing the game several times lol. Other thank these small issues, I love this game! It's a classic.

Used to have this game and added it back because I liked how simple and satisfying the play and visuals were. Now the control mechanism is completely counterintuitive--slide toward the bottom to aim, not toward the block you want to hit; slide left to aim right, slide right to aim left... And it's far too sensitive! Veers wildly around, can't aim precisely. Tried for two levels and can't stand it any more.

Fun game, but full of bugs. How do you make a game this simple so bad? The concept is great, and it is fun, but sometimes the blocks just disappear. Including the item that gives you another ball. On top of that, the ads will pop open all on their own, which is absolutely an invasion of my privacy. I don't enjoy seeing ads, but I can live with that. I absolutely will not stand for having ads open themselves, especially while I'm in the middle of a game. Fix this soon, or I will be deleting.

Fun, relaxing game that is good for when you need to get your mind off of things or when you have a minute to kill. I like it for waiting rooms and that type of thing. unlocking new ball colors adds some color and customization to the game. Ads are really annoying when they interrupt game play and I wish the blocks changed color in the higher numbers like they do in lower numbers.

Playing was great up until recently, blocks just disappear sometimes and the sound of the balls hitting blocks is out of sync with the actual visual of it happening and doesn't change in speed anymore when I fast-forward. This is a constant issue even after restarting the game. Creates a very repetitive and annoying sound to have to listen to while I play. Also the ability to toggle specifically the ball hitting block sound off and on instead of all sound would be great.

I've had this game for many years and loved playing it until recently. Now big blocks randomly vanish on one hit, wrecking strategies - the lead ball is not on the same trajectory as the following balls - and it randomly opens malware like adds directly in my browser when I'm not even touching the phone. I don't know what changed with the developers, but it changed so drastically that I bothered to come here and comment before deleting the game.

It's wickedly fun. I've played for hours. The best part is a small glitch the game has. Occasionally when you destroy a tile the tile next to it disappears too, even if you don't have a ball touch it. It's random, but makes the game way better than I could have imagined. It makes the game last longer and just hits the sweet spot in your head when you get lucky. I figured you'd figure this out eventually and urge you to keep it in.

The game is pretty fun but has a glitch that causes boxes to disappear when they haven't been hit. This defeats the point of the game and takes the fun out of it. Also, the ads have recently gotten VERY annoying. About once per minute, an ad pops up that covers most of the lower half of the screen, preventing you from seeing the boxes that are in that section or aiming your ball. I'm uninstalling the app due to this.

I don't mind ads and I know you get paid for to shove them our faces. Having some ads I can understand. It helps keep the game free to play. But there are too many ads. Throttle back some. Add a menu or add an icon to to the main screen to allow us to reverse the direction to shoot the ball. Exp: I want to shoot to the right but I have to to aim to the left to go right and vise versa. Garbage!

Great game overall, but one annoying issue: you can turn off the music, but not the sound effects. That means I can't listen to my own music while playing without hearing the constant sound effects from the balls hitting the blocks. The game also automatically turns down my music, like it thinks I would rather hear the sound effects than the music I'm trying to listen to. Please let me mute all sounds and stop turning down my volume! Then it's 5/5

UPDATE: all issues fixed. Took a few months, but back to being my favorite. Fast forward, no ads, not clunky. The simplest game, easy to play for 1 minute or 40 -- so watch out. Used to be my favorite game -- challenging but simple, and a great time waster. But now, despite having paid for no ads, there are ads. And choosing no ads is no longer an option. Also, the "fast forward" option during play doesn't work, which is less important but still annoying. What gives? I'll be uninstalling.

This is a great game, but there are a few major issues. I have found out on multiple occasions that you can very easily press the restart button on accident. Because of that I have lost around 5000+ levels worth of progress. Please make an "are you sure" tab to pop up when someone presses restart so they can confirm whether they want to restart or not. Please take this into consideration. Thank you!

It was great, but something has changed with the ads. Now, they pop up in the middle of your turn and cover most of the screen. These sometimes lock the game, so you have to close and restart. The other new ad-type takes you to a website right in the middle of your turn, something called "areahorse". It's become unplayable. Sadly, after years, I must say goodbyes to this game. It was ruined by greed.

The game is a really good time killer, and it runs really smooth. The only issue I have with it is that sometimes the blocks just randomly disappear for no reason. It's really annoying to be bouncing off a big block to get the perfect angle and then it just disappears mid-bounce, the balls hit the corner of a block and ricochet to the bottom, making me waste like 20 balls for no reason. Pls fix, I'll gladly change it to 5 stars if it is.

Been playing for over 5 years and have gotten above level 2,000 many times. Just recently, though, some frustrating bugs have come up- I thought I paid for no ads but the ads returned last week, half the buttons aren't working in the game now, and the fast forward feature is not working (which is crucial starting at level 800). I'm sure it'll be fixed soon; I'm really looking forward to getting back to normal game play!

Used to be fine, now after two turns the ad at the bottom pops up and blocks most of the screen. It's impossible to remove and not on a timer, making the game unplayable until you fully close the app and restart it. Then, you only have two more turns until it comes back. Hope this is fixed. The ad situation was perfectly fine and unobtrusive before.

Most of the time everything works fine, however usually when I click "get one more run" it let's you watch an ad and then start again where you left off. Now you watch the ad, even says 'reward granted', but you still start from zero. Some blocks on the left wall still randomly disappearing as well. Other than that, I love this game. So addictive and fun. Please fix these bugs!

Game is ok. Only gave 3 stars because the screen size is messed up. The edges are off the screen so you can't see them, so you can't really setup angled shots. I don't see any setting to adjust that. Update: I am lowering my review to 1 star and uninstalling the app. The screen is still messed up and now I have ads all along the bottom. So if I try to hit the back button or any other soft buttons it registers a click on the ad and takes me to their advertisement. Goodbye.

When a stack of balls disappears without the player breaking it, is it getting added to a future stack? Great game, as close to classic brick breaker as I've seen. I paid for no ads because this is one of the few games that focused on just a simple, well-made game. Job well done. When I change audio output while playing, the sound starts up again, even though it says it's muted.
