Brickball drops you into a arcade challenge you can start in a couple of seconds. It leans on block & tetris-like, so expect short rounds you can repeat. It works the same on desktop, tablet and phone, and your progress picks up where the game left it.

How to play Brickball

There is very little to learn before your first run. On desktop the arrow keys / WASD do the moving; the full mapping is in the table below. The game is wide rather than tall — fullscreen is worth it on a monitor, and on a phone the picture is much better sideways. The second run is always better than the first — that is the whole learning curve.

Why it is worth playing

Brickball is the kind of game that fits into a gap between other things. Two minutes is a real session, and so is an hour. A browser game does not need to be more than that.
