How to play Ballistic

Press and drag to set your aim, then let go to fire. Your shots ricochet off the blocks and chip away at every number they touch. After each turn the whole field drops by one row. If a block reaches the bottom, the run is over.

Special targets on the field add extra balls to your volley, and power-ups help you clear blocks faster and set off bigger chain reactions. The more balls you collect, the more damage each shot can do.

Tips for longer runs

  • Use clever angles to reach blocks hiding behind high numbers.
  • Aim at clusters of low-number blocks so one volley clears several at once.
  • Grab extra-ball targets early. A bigger volley pays off for the rest of the game.
  • Watch the lowest row first. Removing the closest threat buys you time.

About Ballistic

Ballistic is an arcade block breaker built on clever angles and careful planning. Rows of numbered blocks creep toward the bottom of the screen, and you hold them back with a volley of bouncing balls. The number on each block tells you how many more hits it can take before it breaks.

Every shot plays out a little differently because of the physics, so you keep discovering new angles. The rules take seconds to pick up, yet beating your best score asks for real planning and a steady hand.

For more aim-and-clear action, try Bubble Town, or switch to a calmer block puzzle with 10x10.

Line up your first shot and see how long you can keep the blocks at bay.
