Best Brick Breaker game?

The best Brickbreaking game style is Ricochet infinity its only 99 cents, there is 9 planets, around 100+ stages total.... its got sweet graphics and sound....you can upgrade your ship/paddle to different ship/paddles that have different abilities....different ball skins , the game is the complete package....

 

In fact it's not exactly the full package, probably the original package, because now and even before iPhone release the PC version has more than 200 levels. I was expecting an IAP but none came, perhaps the game didn't sell well enough or after having discovered the context they change their mind.

 

Although I have an Xbox 360, PS3 and Wii, I've actually been playing my iPod Touch more than the three of them combined (perhaps because I can get away with it more with the wife ). But I recently picked up Shatter for PS3 (believe it's considered a mini). It's easly one of the best brick-breakers I've ever played and wish it would get ported to the iOS.

There are quite a few brick breakers on the iOS. But while some are good, like Jet Ball, I still don't think there's anything that I would consider to be epic. Shatter would be a fantastic addition to the iOS.

 

I have played Shatter, many levels but not finished. It's a very special one, not really a Brick Breaker anymore. It is great but it fails a little in repetition, in part. I'm not sure the gameplay would fit that well touch controls. Anyway I feel it rather rude your comparison with it and other already on ios.

Myself I consider, Circuloid, Block Breaker Deluxe 2, Brickadelic and Ricochet Infinity better than Shatter. Yes it's subjective but in term of features diversity Shatter just can't compare with them and from very far for the first 3.

 

My vote is for Jet Ball.

 

Here's a list of the best brick breakers currently in the app store, not necessary in this order:

1. Jet Ball
2. Atomic Ball
3. Blocks Touch 3D
4. Ricochet Infinity
5. Arkano Arena
6. Brickadelic
7. 3D Brick Breaker Revolution 2
8. Arkanoid
9. Meteor
10. Space Out
11. Breakeroids
12. Space Breakout
13. Radial 50
14. Breakspin
15. Core Damage

 

Is there a breakout game which adds spin to the ball?

 

Thanks for the list, there's few I hadn't quoted yet so that I'll try them (Blockstouch 3D, Space Out, Breakeroids, Space Breakout, Core damage).

I feel strange to see in the list Atomic Ball which repeat almost the same level again and again but well your choice and it has a sort of dynamic for it. I also felt 3D Brick Breaker Revolution 2 too repetitive despite the design efforts. Its design putting an extreme focus on powerup is a part of its originality but also a part in its gameplay holes.

And the absence of Brick Breaker Deluxe 2 makes me smile, you shouldn't let your hate against Gameloft make you lost your objectivity. Other than that I would add for an extended selection:

• Brick Breaker Deluxe 2
• Circuloid (one of the best and more original for me)
• COCONoid (also a very original one)
• Enchanted Forest
• SuperBall 3 (iphone version but avoid ipad version with fps problems)
• Bricks of Camelot
• QuadNoid
• Splash Duel
• Mr. Bounce (for the special gameplay)
• Reflexion (well for someone not finding its gameplay too difficult)

EDIT:

Good question, I'm almost sure there's one but can't remember which one and there's a good possibility I make a confusion with a PC or Mac Brick Breaker. Sorry for this non answer.

 

I just discovered Circuloid and Splash Duel, and I agree these are definitely 2 of the best brick breakers around. I would add Reflexion to the list too, but as far as I know, it's incompatible with iOS 4+, and hasn't been updated since 2009. There's a couple on your list I didn't know about: Coconoid and Mr. Bounce, these are very unique brick breakers!

BTW, I don't hate Gameloft at all, I actually really like their games. I just hadn't tried Brick Breaker Deluxe 2 yet, but I own it now and yes it's a good one for sure, it's a tad cheesy, but certainly an excellent brick breaker.

EDIT: whoa! I just discovered another brick breaker called Halogen, it's extremely awesome!

My revised list so far:

1. Jet Ball
2. Atomic Ball
3. Blocks Touch 3D
4. Ricochet Infinity
5. Arkano Arena
6. Brickadelic
7. 3D Brick Breaker Revolution 2
8. Arkanoid
9. Meteor
10. Space Out
11. Breakeroids
12. Space Breakout
13. Radial 50
14. Breakspin
15. Core Damage
16. Brick Breaker Deluxe 2
17. Circuloid
18. Splash Duel
19. Mr. Bounce
20. Coconoid
21. Sonic Slug Bricks
22. Halogen

 

Thanks again to updates, and don't forget to add more updates, I hadn't noticed Halogen.

 

Peggle, if that counts!

 

Halogen is the most amazing brick breaker I've played, totally unique, nothing like.

The dev's put it best (although this doesn't even fully describe it): "Halogen is what would happen if Air Hockey and Galaxian had a baby and bottle fed him with lemonade and sherbet."

 

Hey, thanks for the props SuperWeird!

So that you know, we're working on the first update for Halogen right this very minute after being on hiatus. Expect the update to hit soon once we've ironed out the last few crinkles!

 

I haven't played many of this kind, but there are two which i confess are great: Ball Slam Fantasy and Bricks of Cameloft.

 

May I recommend PinPon? It's a new game; pretty simple but with 100 levels and smooth, polished graphics.
Certainly worth a look.

 

Right on, I look forward to the update. The game occasionally crashes during tournament mode, so hopefully this will be fixed, also multitasking would be helpful.

Regardless, this game is simply awesome. It really defies genre boundaries altogether to give us something totally unique. The boss battles, full screen mobility, geo-wars-like space shooter action, air hockey defense elements, brick breaking, waves of alien enemies, shields, powerups, endless mode, wow! Everyone should know about Halogen, amazing!!

 

is there going to be an iPhone version?

 

GloBall is a pretty unique brick breaker. It's sort of a combo of a ball roller/labyrinth game and a brick breaker.

 

Ball Slam Fantasy Tournament is another very creative brick breaker. Your paddle is an alien which creates a trail as it moves around and acts as a reflector for the ball. Also you can move anywhere on the screen, and need to defend several port openings all around the screen where the ball can escape. I picked this game up a couple weeks ago when it was free, but am just now checking it out, very cool. Just wish it was universal HD for the iPad too.
