How to play Brick Breaker

A useful example
An edge hit sends the ball at a different angle. Use the example as a guide rather than a substitute for reading your board. Keep the game’s format in mind.
Watch out for this
Track its landing point, not only its current x-coordinate. Read the feedback to see why an action did not have the expected result. Keep the stated aim separate from side details such as animation or appearance. Progress is measured by the game’s own completion or scoring rules.
