NEON BREAK

Fire in both directions from the center of the screen. Melt the closing blocks with an ever-growing rain of balls.

■ Closing in from both sides Blocks push in one row at a time, from above and from below. Which threat do you cut down first? That call, every turn, is the difference between surviving and not. This is the heart of the game.

■ The more you fire, the more you get Spend the coins you earn on more balls, more power, a faster stream. Four balls at the start; before long they fill the screen. Infinite bounces, curveballs, side warp - the further you go, the more the board itself changes how you play.

■ NEON Break a gold block to trigger it. Balls pour in, WAVEs speed up, the screen melts. Keep breaking and the timer keeps extending; how long you last becomes your record.

■ It doesn't end There is no game over. WAVEs keep advancing, blocks keep getting tougher, and your upgrades keep growing. One hand, portrait, one turn whenever you like.

■ For you if

• You like the feel of breaking things without thinking
