Cheats and Hints for "Brick Breaker"

Fans of the Blackberry's "BrickBreaker" game often search the Internet for cheat codes that will help them get through all 34 levels. A lot of different cheat codes have been introduced in forums throughout the years, but none of them work. Some of these codes will even exit you from your game, meaning that you'll have to start over again from Level 1. Some tips and hints for "Brick Breaker" will be more effective in helping you get through the grueling levels.

Keep your fingers nimble and your attention focused on the ball. Whenever possible, make sure the ball hits your paddle in the center. Hitting the ball with the sides of the paddle can send it spiraling out of control or speed up its flight. If you start to get tired, take a break and resume your game later.

Only collect capsules that are easily reachable. Don't lunge for an out-of-reach capsule; the loss of life isn't worth the extra 50 points it will give. At the higher difficulty levels, be selective as to what capsules you pick up. By forgoing the extra points you might get from a "Flip" capsule, you'll avoid the headache of playing the rest of the level with reversed controls.

The ultimate secret to "BrickBreaker" is simple survival. Don't focus on your score during the first two play-throughs. Once you beat all 34 levels for the first time, the game will start you back at Level 1 with the ball flying faster than before, which will make things much more challenging. Beating the game a second time makes the ball fly slowly in every level.

Once you've beaten the game twice, go for big scores on your third play-through. The ball will be moving slowly, so you will be able to boost your scores into the six-figure range by being a little more aggressive. If you stay focused, maxing out your score will be easy.
