About Face Breaker
A paddle game with a square face for a ball. You keep it in play, it breaks blocks, and the speed rises with every bounce until keeping up with it is the whole task. There are forty five levels, and each one starts calm and does not stay that way.
The accelerating ball is what separates this from an ordinary brick game. A layout you could clear at the starting speed is a different problem two minutes later, so a level rewards getting through it quickly rather than tidily. It plays upright on a phone or a desktop.
How to play
- Move the paddle to keep the face in play.
- Break the blocks above you.
- Clear the level before the speed gets away from you.

Tips
- Hit the ball with the edge of the paddle to change its angle. The centre sends it straight back.
- Open one side first. A ball that gets above the blocks does the work for you.
