What is distinct here
PlayFree’s Breakout edition keeps the classic paddle-and-brick loop while using paddle impact position to create controllable rebound angles. The canvas scales with the page and accepts mouse, keyboard and touch movement.
Rules
- Keep the ball above the bottom edge with your paddle.
- Every broken brick adds 10 points.
- Clear all 35 bricks before losing three balls.
Strategy tips
- Aim with the edge of the paddle.
- Keep watching the ball, not the paddle.
