A Sacred Symbols Adventure
More than just another Brick Breaker
The year is 2311, everyone still hates Colin Moriarty for a joke he made 294 years ago, Earth is no longer humanity’s only home… oh youre confused?
Yeah this brick breakers has a story.
It’s actually a pretty interesting concept of sending generations through space until eventually one of the ships make it back and lead to a discovery of a wormhole, whats on the otherside you might ask?
If only there were 2 bright young lads to make this journey.. what a coincidence.. We have Chris and Colin, setting out to discover whats on the other side…
Fake spoiler warning, it’s a brick breaker game.
Twin Breakers consists of 7 different modes, most of which are nice little time waster mini games such as an endless shooter mode, a boss rush mode, or a pong mode where you play pong with the games bosses… but the star of the show is this little over 2 hour long 40 level adventure where you take on space bad guys and break bricks.
Though Twin Breaker has a unique twist… youre controlling 2 “bouncers” at a time, one with the left stick and one with the right stick.. a twin stick brick breaker.. leading to a rub your tummy and pat your head styled gameplay especially later on when youre controlling 4 bouncers all at once with the two sticks…
The concept is simple, the bricks have a number of how many times they need hit on them, you try your hardest to break them all before time runs out or you lose all ofyour lives, all while trying to get the highest score possible to unlock even more of the story back in the trophy room…
And as youre doing so upgrades will drop from the sky, helping you out and making everything going on more hectic… and if you lose your lives, you’re abale to trade in some points for one more try.. which comes in handy during those more difficult levels..
That being said, Twin Breaker doesn’t do quite enough to make this experience memorable or addictive as it could be.. We can look at peggle as an example of how to make brick breaking interesting with constant new gimics and mechanics… im not saying I want peggle, but I feel like there were some missed opportunities here to play around with black holes for example amond many other things to really make levels more intriguing and not so predictable… sure if a simple brick breaking game with a slight twist is all youre looking for, youll get that here… but ask anyone after playing this game what their favorite levels was, and they wont be able to tell you.. they all blur together, beyond the first half of the campaign, Twin Breaker starts to run out of fuel, it loses its charm and there aren’t even interesting boss battles to look forward too, at first the idea of a boss in a brick breaker Is insance, its exciting… but ultimately these battles are the easiest levels in the game and all feel and look the same.
While of course seeing how Colin and Chris’ journey ends pulled me through to the credits, and Ill always encourage support of fellow content creators,
I wish there were more pazzaz to recommend Twin Breaker beyond that.
