Brickmatic: Brick Game

The games

What each one is for, in a line. The controls are printed on the case.

Pick a game on the list with PREV and NEXT; the letter on the glass is the one beside each name here. The first time you start a game, the device shows you the same line as a card, holding the game still until you have read it.

  1. Tetromino

    Fit the falling pieces into full rows. A full row disappears.

  2. Pentamino

    Fit the five-cell pieces into full rows. A full row disappears.

  3. Tank

    Shoot the enemy tanks and keep them away from your base.

  4. Tank duel

    Shoot the enemy tanks before they shoot you. There is no base to guard.

  5. Race

    Switch lanes to dodge the oncoming cars.

  6. Race: curves

    Steer to stay on the road as it bends. One crash ends the run.

  7. Snake

    Eat the blinking dot to grow. Do not hit a wall, a block or yourself.

  8. Arkanoid

    Keep the ball off the floor with the bat and break every brick.

  9. Stack shot

    Shoot bricks up into the wall coming down. A full row disappears.

  10. Wall shot

    Shoot the formation apart before it or its bombs reach you.

  11. Match

    The pad changes the bottom shapes. Match them before the top ones land.

  12. Frog

    Hop up through the gaps in the moving blocks. Park ten frogs at the top.

  13. Virus

    Line up four of a colour. The hollow ones are germs: clear them all.
