Ultimate Brick Breaker Free

Ultimate Brick Breaker Free, on the other hand, is not only unique but actually, as a game, is very well put together.
It’s set in a future where you will play rounds on many different planets, facing countless defender bots and bosses.
As I mentioned before, the most common complaint of many block-breaker games is the controls; usually, they are just not responsive enough.
Icon Games Entertainment has obviously taken note of this and has really put in the effort to make the controls more flexible for the player.
For example, to move the paddle, you can either use the D-pad or the analog stick.
I found the analog was useful for quick sweeping motions from one side of the screen to the other,
whereas the D-pad was a little better for shorter, more accurate movements.
On the other hand, if you feel you need to move that little bit more quickly across the screen to reach that ball that unexpectedly bounced off an invisible block, you can hold the right shoulder button to move your paddle rapidly across the screen.
If you feel you’re moving just a little too fast even when using the D-pad,
you’re able to slow your paddle down to almost a crawl by holding the left shoulder button.
If that’s still not slow enough for you, you’re able to use the Square button to quite literally move inch by inch across the screen,
although I find this to be of little use, as I very rarely need to move so slowly.
If, for any reason, you find the ball isn’t moving fast enough, you are able to “volley” the ball by pushing the Circle button,
which causes the ball to move at more of a rapid pace. Although it’s clear they put a lot of thought into these controls,
I still found that the analog stick and D-pad do not compare to a computer’s mouse for accuracy.
As you progress through the game, you will face a variety of enemies,
most of which will fire lasers or bullets at your paddle which will disable it momentarily (unless you have collected a power-up,
which you would lose if you were hit by the lasers), while you try to destroy the blocks. Fortunately, with a few hits from the ball,
you can easily dispatch them. Enemy bots are not the only thing you will have to contend with;
there are also invisible blocks that can cause a few problems,
especially when the ball ricochets off one and careens straight past your paddle.
Blocks that fire lasers at your paddle will also disable it (much like the bots), which I found very frustrating throughout the game;
in hindsight, though, it does add a little more of a challenge to Ultimate Brick Breaker Free. At the end of each zone, you are pitted against a boss,
each one different from and harder than its predecessors.
