Aquanoid is just another clone of the popular games Breakout and Arkanoid. It is an arcade game that involves breaking the platforms on the screen by bouncing a ball off a movable bat/ paddle. Once you break all the blocks on the screen you move on to the next level where there are more complex block formations.
The game play is really very simple and straightforward. You will be controlling the paddle and moving it from left to right of the screen so that the ball will have a surface to bounce on.

The game play is really very simple and straightforward. You will be controlling the paddle and moving it from left to right of the screen so that the ball will have a surface to bounce on. You just need to have quick reflexes and anticipate where the ball will fall next so that you can bring the paddle there. The game becomes increasingly difficult as you go through
it.
There are power ups that you can get when you are playing the game. These upgrades help you break the blocks faster. Some of the power ups featured in the game include getting multiple balls so there will be more balls to bounce on the blocks and a gun that you can use to shoot at the blocks. There is also a power up that makes the paddle longer so that the ball will have a longer surface to bounce on.
The game is fun to play although it is not the kind of game you would play for many weeks, it is the kind of game that you keep in your PC so that you’ll have a good game to play when you have several minutes of time to kill on breaks from work or just when you want a quick stress reliever. It’s a game you don’t stress over the results or even the points. You just play it to really get far in the game and that’s it. Sometimes when you play it against another player then you’ll be concerned about the points but otherwise it’s a game you play to just have fun.
The game is fun but it’s not the addictive type of games that will keep you up all night just because you want to finish it. You’ll enjoy playing it but you won’t get disappointed if you can’t spare time for it. I recommend this game for downloading to anyone who doesn’t have Arkanoid or Breakout in their hard drives. But if you have other similar arcade games in your hard drive then it’s wise to just use the space for other games.
