About Arcadium

In Arcadium the main goal is to break all the bricks on each level using a paddle and a ball, if the ball passes the paddle and leaves the screen you lose a life. There are however some special levels where the goal is something else and also levels where you fight a boss.

Throughout the levels you can get powerups such as being able to fire laser, bigger paddle and more balls, get points to get high up on the leaderboard and also to get extra lives. You can also get permanent powerups which will not be lost when you lose a life or go to the next level.

You use the mouse to control the paddle and the left mouse button to fire the ball or use weapons, the keyboard is used to scroll through the menus and also to pause the game. You can choose between three difficulty settings and also adjust the volume of the sound effects and music, there is also an option to turn off the permanent upgrades for a more challenging gameplay.

If you are a big fan of the old brickbreaker games such as Arkanoid and Breakout you are definitely gonna enjoy this game as it have similar features but also adds something new.

Key Features:

* Classic brickbreaker levels
* Special levels
* Boss fights
* Powerups
* Permanent powerups
* Three difficulty settings
* Achievements
* Leaderboard

I swear this is the old Wild Tangent Games Brick Breaker I played when I was a kid. The style and powerups and game really fit my memory and feelings. This is a great brick breaker game, probably the best one on steam and it is FREE and without ads. Just good ol 90s vibes and time down the drain. What a great find.

Игра 'Arcadium' оказалась приятным сюрпризом. Простая, но увлекательная аркада, где нужно отбивать волны астероидов, быстро затягивает. Визуальный стиль минималистичный, но глаз радует – яркие цвета и четкие линии создают атмосферу классических аркадных игр. Управление интуитивно понятное, разобраться сможет любой. Разнообразие бонусов и улучшений добавляет глубины геймплею, постоянно побуждая экспериментировать с разными стратегиями. Хоть игра и кажется простой на первый взгляд, она требует хорошей реакции и тактического мышления, особенно на более высоких уровнях сложности. Реиграбельность на высоте, всегда есть стимул побить свой предыдущий рекорд. Недостатков почти нет, разве что отсутствие сюжетной линии, но для аркады это простительно. В целом, 'Arcadium' – отличный выбор для тех, кто хочет быстро и весело провести время, погрузившись в мир динамичного аркадного геймплея. Рекомендую!
