    Everything about Glaive: Brick Breaker feels like a generic Breakout clone. There is just nothing here that sets this title apart from the countless variations on this formula seen in the past. If it was at least smooth it might have been a good, simple distraction. Unfortunately, this game is far from refined and feels like a rushed adaptation of something that has been great in the past.

    Glaive: Brick Breaker appears to be a game that exists just to pay homage to its inspiration, Brick Breaker. It never tries to be much more than that, and is content wallowing in mediocrity.

Game gives a good arcade feel of old classic games but brings a lot of new stuff to the table. It starts easy but as you progress, there are new game modes, boss fight which are challenging and stages that can be a pain in the ass, but isn't it what we like?

    Handfull of powerups and a cool versus mode for 2 players.

    There are some technical issues sometimens but game keeps you occupied with "one more stage" syndrome.

    Had a lot of fun with this game and completed it in 4hours + approx. 1 hour of versus mode with my boy. He and friends like competition.    … Expand

    stress wise

    stress wise
    the games levels are fun I got stuck on level 6 for a while that annoyed me lol
    two player is fantastic fun responsive controls sounds music all top notch
    the game plays well the ball mechanics are great but sometimes the ball whizz past you
    but I wasn't expecting an easy game and that's good
    powerups are decent a couple are really good to use
    Id recommend the game as its fun to pick up and play
    and is also well priced for a modern brickbreaker game    … Expand

    Game has a good vibe of classic arkanoid. But be warned - game is not easy and may frustrate you !

    What a dull game. I even like this kind of brick breaker type of game but this one, uuunnnggghhh, it just keeps on giving but what its givingWhat a dull game. I even like this kind of brick breaker type of game but this one, uuunnnggghhh, it just keeps on giving but what its giving is tedium wrapped in janky gameplay with poor ball physics and levels that take Sisyphean amounts of determination to get through. Just having a line of bricks that take a ton of hits to remove isn't fun. I mean, it's not torture either. Its like repeatedly stepping on a lego brick. It hurts but you can handle it. The question is why are you continuing to step on that brick? Just stop, and that's what you should do with this game. Just stop. In fact stop before you buy it.… Expand
