Arkanoid Series


Arkanoid is a series of Breakout inspired games released in both arcades and for home computers and consoles. As in Breakout, players control a paddle and need to deflect a bouncing ball to destroy a wall of bricks; Arkanoid games add additional power ups and other unique features to expand on the original Breakout concept.
