Atari Breakout game

A classic arcade game with blocks you need to destroy. A ball moves straight around the screen, bouncing off the top and two sides. Choose between the different modes ‘double’,‘cavity’ or ‘progressive’ with each a unique gameplay experience. Double will give you control of two paddles at the same time. Cavity has two paddles, but initially only one ball. The other balls are contained inside walls and can be freed. In the progressive mode the entire wall will come downwards step by step.

This edition of the classic game features several modes. One will let you play with two paddles, while another will make the bricks slowly move toward the bottom of the screen. Can you destroy all of them in each challenging level?

Breakout's addictive gameplay helped make it one of the most popular video games of all time. It practically created an entire genre of video games following the original edition's debut in 1976. The game was also designed by a team that included Steve Jobs shortly before he went on to co-found Apple.

Since then, Breakout has inspired countless imitators along with official follow-ups like 1978’s Super Breakout. You can never quite tell where the game will pop up next. Over the years, it’s appeared as a hidden easter egg on both Google and the early editions of the Apple iPod!
