What you are aiming for

Clear all forty-five bricks before losing three balls. An attractive position is not enough unless the goal is met. Start with a deliberate move.

The playing sequence

  1. Start the ball.
  2. Move the paddle to intercept it.
  3. Paddle contact changes the outgoing angle.
  4. Restart a remaining ball after a loss.

Your inputs

Pointer, arrow keys or held Left/Right. Start / pause and New round are available. Read a button’s label before selecting it. Look at the feedback after the action.

Follow the example

An edge hit sends the ball at a different angle. Use the example as a guide rather than a substitute for reading your board. Verify the rule before continuing.

One detail worth checking

Track its landing point, not only its current x-coordinate. Compare the situation with the worked example. Take enough time to read a new position. If a game has a timer, learn its controls first rather than searching for them during the round.
