You like Arkanoid? You'll love Arkanoid: Space Ball!
It's got all the brick-shattering action of the originial, and a whole lot more. For starters, it breaks the genre-mold by flipping the screen 90 degrees. That's right, we said it: horizontal Arkanoid!
Soaring through space, you have to clear countless levels while avoiding meteorites, spacecrafts, and enemy artillery. Collect bonuses from the broken blocks, including lasers, rocket launchers, and force fields.
Arkanoid: Space Ball features a futuristic atmosphere, modern graphics, dynamic gameplay and a visceral, pulsing soundtrack. Gravitational anomalies, moving and shooting bricks... Classic!
Breakout, Arkanoid, and now Arkanoid: Space Ball. Are you ready to lose another few hundred hours of your life?

- “Very fun game, much like the original arcade game from back in the 80's. It's played sideways, so your paddle is on the right and attempting to clear blocks on the left, as opposed to the original where your paddle was on the bottom and attempting to clear blocks at the top. The powers you get from the falling capsules seem to combine rather than overwrite each other, although there may be a setting to change this. It seems easier than the old arcade game, but maybe my coordination has improved since then. ;-) It's got a tutorial system that is built in to explain what each of the objects are, and it's easy to turn off. It is a mouse-based game, so you are not using the keyboard. I don't know if you can use the keyboard or not. I'd prefer a dial like the old days, but I don't have one.”
- “The game is overflowing with the spirit of the original. It's dynamic, action packed, fast, addictive, adrenaline filled and graphic rich. This game deserves a standing ovation.”
- “Action packed! There's never a dull moment. I like the power ups. This game is completely addictive. I would totally recomend it.”
