Game Classification

BrickAttack is a puzzle game which presents you an oddly formed playfield (inner field is 5x5 (at easy; 7x7 at normal; 10x10 at hard) and on each side are 3 rows with each 5 (respectively 7 or 10) bricks attached). The outer rows can be rotated clockwise.

When you start a game, some bricks are in the center field, now your job is to shoot bricks from the outer rows into the center field, but only bricks from upper/lower/left/right of the center bricks can be shot. Each brick in the center will be marked with an arrow indicating from which side it was started.

Your job is now to combine at least 3 bricks of the same color (total color amount depends on the difficulty setting, from 5 over 8 to 10). When this happens, they vanish, you score and possible other bricks, once blocked by these, will move and fill the gap (or if they were at the outer rows, it will move into these rows).

Score as much as you can, before the inner field is completely filled with bricks, and you loose.

As already told, the game offers three difficulty settings and the brick skins can be customized. [source:mobygames]
