    The new single player levels have some decent levels, but there's also a ton of horrible levels that are grossly unfair.
    I can't believe unbreakable gold block are still in so frequent in Arkanoid. It's a horrendous idea which is the worst version of "Tension".

    To make matters worse, the speed of the ball becomes uncontrollable after 20-30 seconds into each level which is unbelievably cheap garbage. And when you add in floating enemies that hang around you at the bottom to redirect the ball so you can't react, it’s infuriating.

    This game is full of horrendously cheap BS just to extend the play time.

    The New Eternal Battle which is just vs other people, & when I played it, there was only 2 actual humans out of 25, with the rest made up of Al. That’s how badly this game has flopped.

    When you change position on the leaderboard in eternal battle, the semi transparent levels you’re opponents are playing, flashes across your screen in a pathetic attempt to create a distraction, which is an even more cheap **** way to do tension. Embarrassing.

    I waited for this game to drop from $45 to $4.50 and I still want my money back.

    I want a good new Arkanoid, but nobody wants this unfair trash.

    Arkanoid - Eternal Battle is a pleasant surprise that combines classic gameplay with battle royale elements. It will probably become your favorite version of Arkanoid, it's just a shame that you won't be able to enjoy its main mode with many players.

    There isn’t much in Arkanoid Eternal Battle to entice new players; nor battle royale aficionados looking for something different as those new mechanics are very basic.

    Arkanoid Eternal Battle is fun for a while but can get frustrating very quickly. With no option to save your progress, this hampers my score. I wish there was an option for an offline/easy mode, a bit like Tetris 99 has, but otherwise it’s a solid title if you loved the original. I would, however, recommend waiting for a sale.
