Balls: Ricochet!

One shot, three walls, four blocks gone - that's the whole appeal of Balls: Ricochet! You're not just aiming at a block, you're aiming at the angle that sends the ball bouncing off the level's edges to smash into everything else on the way.

The setup is old-school on purpose. This one's built as a tribute to early-80s arcade shooting games, so there's no clutter here - just correct ball physics, a clean layout, and the satisfying crunch of blocks disappearing. Set your direction, let the ball ricochet, and watch your score climb as chain hits start stacking up.

It's simple to pick up but genuinely tricky to master, which is why it sits comfortably with our other Challenging Games. Play a round solo whenever you've got a spare minute - it's built for exactly that kind of quick, 1 Player Games session.

If brick-clearing games are your thing, it's worth also checking the other entries in the Balls series, or trying something in Puzzle games for a different kind of angle-chasing challenge.

Clear the blocks on each level by aiming and firing the ball so it ricochets off walls and obstacles to hit as many targets as possible in one shot.

Set the direction before you fire - the ball travels in a straight line until it bounces off a wall or block, so you're really aiming the whole path, not just the first hit. Works the same way on Android, iOS, or desktop, right in the browser.

Line up angles that send the ball through tight clusters of blocks instead of just the nearest one - a single well-placed shot can knock out several at once and push your score much higher than firing carelessly.
