    Word is you have to use the stylus, and the speed of the game is extremely slow for a Breakout clone. But aside that, it's really easy and you can play a lot of levels. Solid game for low price.

    When it's firing on all cylinders, AlphaBounce can be a riotous diversion; full of inventive ideas and bold scope, the potential's clearly there. But rather than make a tight, focused design that continually entertains, MotionTwin waste far too much of your time.

    With its 10-15s loading times... and its botched interface, AlphaBounce doesn’t even try to seduce players.

    AlphaBounce successfully incorporates RPG elements into the brick-breaking genre, but doesn't supply the gameplay to back it up.
