Dx Ball Review

- Review by David Galvin

Dave Galvin is a freelance writer and avid gamer. Somehow, he managed to find a way to combine the two passions.

It’s Time to Break Out!

Are you familiar with the old block-breaking game of Breakout? It was a challenging little classic that had you break apart rows upon rows of shiny little blocks using a ball that you had to ensure never hit the ground. This is not that game. It’s very similar though.

DX-Ball is an independently-made game that was developed in the ‘90s that operates under a lot of similar design principles as Breakout. At first blush, it might look really derivative, and you would not be entirely wrong in thinking so. However, that does not mean it can’t be just as fun its progenitor. Even so, DX-Ball still has a few tricks up its sleeve that help it stand out in the crowd. Besides, you could do a whole lot worse for a game that’s completely free to play.

Easy to Learn, Hard to Put Down

Like all the various clones of Breakout that came before and after it, DX-Ball plays like a combination of pinball and Pong. You control a paddle with your mouse and use it to keep a little white ball aloft in the air. Failure to do so results in you losing a life.

In the meantime, you have to use the ball to destroy an array of blocks above you. Some blocks go down with a single hit. Others need to be whacked several times. Some are invisible and will only appear once the ball collides with them once. Some blocks are indestructible, some blow up at the slightest touch, and so on.

It may not sound exciting at first, by DX-Ball manages to mix things up with its variety of power-ups. Some blocks will release a power-up when they are destroyed; if you catch it with your paddle, you can benefit from any number of boons. You can increase the size of your paddle, add more balls to bounce around, get the ability to catch and strategically re-launch the ball at your whim, or equip your paddle with a pair of blasters to shoot and destroy blocks in an instant. Powers stack as well, so if you’re able to nab each one that comes your way, keeping that ball up in the air can be a piece of cake.

However, not all power-ups are so benign. Just to mess around with you, DX-Ball incorporates a variety of power-downs that can make things harder if you make the mistake of grabbing them. They can have all sorts of negative effects; one can shrink your paddle, one will cause the blocks to sink lower every time the ball bounces, one will increase the movement speed of the ball, and one will even outright kill you!

The power-ups and power-downs of DX-Ball make it far more dynamic and unpredictable than your usual Breakout clone. You have no idea just what’s going to pop up on every screen. Sometimes a level will be over in a flash because you got a good combination of abilities. Other times, it could take a good while before anything decent comes your way.

Either way, you could easily call this game the Super Mario Bros. of Breakout clones. DX-Ball would be fun for a few minutes on its own, but the assorted abilities you can receive at any time seal the deal and increase the replay value. It can be a very difficult game to put down. You might tell yourself: “Just one more game and I'll be done for the day,” but you’ll be back for another round in short order.

It’s Not Always So Bouncy

Unfortunately, as much as luck can be your best friend, it’s just as likely going to be your worst enemy. Progress in DX-Ball often comes down to how lucky you are. Sometimes the power-ups will rain on you like it’s the first day of spring. Other times, the well will dry up and you’ll be left with a plain old paddle and ball.

Make no mistake; DX-Ball is not necessarily hard without the power-ups. It’s just that since you have so little direct control over where the ball bounces, nailing the last few blocks in a level can be an incredibly tedious experience. The only way to change the ball’s bounce, speed or direction without the use of a power-up is with proper timing and control of the paddle. Even that is pretty unreliable, and that’s assuming you can even pull the trick off in the first place.

To be fair, the game will happily throw you a bone and bring you to the next level if a single block is left untouched for too long. However, that won’t do you any favors if there are still several remaining. It does not help that the game’s physics are so primitive and simplistic that the ball can bounce in a cyclical pattern more easily than it really has any right to.

Broken, But Fun

DX-Ball has a number of issues that can make it more frustrating than fun at times. However, like how the ball always falls back to the ground, it’s a shockingly easy game to come crawling back to. Maybe it’s because no matter how sour things went last time, you just know you might be able to push on a little further next time. Maybe you’ll get a better ability in that level you died in or maybe you’ll waste fewer lives in the previous ones.

Whatever the case may be, DX-Ball is an amusing diversion that you can play for free on most any kind of computer these days. That should count for something.

Game Description

Simple and Addictive Gameplay

DX Ball 2 puts you in control of a paddle and a ball. Your goal is to break and destroy all the bricks on the board in order to advance to the next level. This simple gameplay is made more complex by the types of bricks on the board. Some require more than one hit to disappear, while others are invisible until they've been hit by the ball.

Missing the ball equals losing a life, and losing all lives is game over. Keep an eye on the ball at all times!

Wide Variety of Power Ups

In DX Ball 2, random bricks will drop items when destroyed. Not all items are helpful, and some are downright deadly! Take care to choose items that will work for you rather than against you. The items in DX Ball 2 fall under the following three categories:

Blue:

Thru Brick: Allows the ball to pass through multiple bricks, regardless of type.
Set-Off Exploding: Triggers all explosives on the board.
Fire Ball: Blast away bricks with powerful fire!
Shooting Paddle: Adds two guns to the edges of the paddle, allowing you to shoot bricks.
Grab Paddle: Makes the paddle sticky so the ball stays put on contact.
Extra Life: Gives one spare paddle.
Level Warp: Instantly clears the board and starts the next one.
Zap Bricks: All special bricks are weakened by the zap, making them easy to destroy.
Slow Ball: Slows the ball.
Expand Exploding: All explosive bricks are made accessible.

Red:

Kill Paddle: Instant death and loss of one paddle.
Shrink Ball: Makes the ball tiny and hard to control.
Fast Ball: Ball darts around at full speed!
Super Shrink: Tiny paddle.
Falling Bricks: When the ball hits the paddle, bricks inch closer and closer, eventually resting right above the paddle.

Gray:

Expand Paddle: Makes the paddle bigger.
Shrink Paddle: Reduces the paddle's size.
Split Ball: Splits the ball into two.
Mega Ball: All balls on the board are made bigger.
Eight Ball: Splits a single ball into eight.

The blue items are generally very helpful, while the gray are neutral depending on the situation. Red items are almost always bad and should be avoided. Keeping an eye on the ball while watching out for bad items adds a new level of challenge to the game!

Six Board Sets

Th games stays fresh and interesting with the availability of six dramatically different board sets. Additional board sets may be added later on as well, giving fantastic replay value.

DX Ball 2 is a great game for focused puzzle lovers looking to pass both long and short periods of time. It never fails to deliver a satisfying gameplay experience!
