An Arkanoid clone, as the name can tell you... This is freeware, as the owner contacted me to ask if I could link to this game and review it. It's not really one hell of a revolutionary game. Actually, it's pretty basic. Hmm, for the ones who don't know the game Arkanoid, here follows a description:

Arkanoid is a game in which you have about 50 bricks or something. You are an object that bounces a ball against those bricks. If the ball hits one of the bricks, the brick "disappears" or in some clones, they explode. Beware, if you miss the ball, it will fall into a gap and you will lose one life.
In some clones, it could happen that a powerup or bonus thing falls out of some of the bricks if you hit them.

Well, this game is almost the same idea. Sometimes a clown's head flies over and you can hit that head with the ball. It will give some blood, but it's not really the most extreme feature I've ever seen. To be honest, I think even a kid won't like it. But the idea is pretty good. It has over 30 levels and even an end boss and an ending sequence. Well, that's what the owner told me. I'm not really that enthusiastic about this game that I want to play for more than 5 scenarios. There is no sound with this game and the graphics are fine. The gameplay is good, but your object just moves a little too slow to catch all the balls.

The addiction level is low, I won't say it's not applicable, but it's very low. I think only few people will feel him or herself challenged to play until the ending sequence. Maybe a kid by the age of 10 will feel himself really challenged.
All by all, I'm not really impressed. I like the idea, but playing the game just doesn't give me a kick or anything and I think I need that when I play a game.
