Quickie Review: Break from Jirbo, Inc.

Today I decided to download Break, which is a simple brick-breaking game. Think Breakout, only the blocks have little bears, dogs and other “cute” animals on them. You additionally get power-ups like a wider paddle and additional lives.

I like brick-breaking games, but I can’t recommend Break from Jirbo. certain, I’d like to dock points for the cute cuddly animals on the bricks, but thats only a tiny part of why I can’t stand that game. First, it runs like crap. It seems like every other brick I hit makes the game stutter, which can be really annoying. Collision detection sucks on that game too. After I watched around the fifth

ball go straight through my paddle I gave up. Oh, and cheating at that game is cake too. whether you lift your finger off the screen, it pauses the game. You can soon after hit the Menu button and visit “Reset Ball”, which will put the ball right back at the starting position.

Sure, that game might be fun whether you could look past those two issues, but frankly, they are abundant to produce me remove it from my iPhone (which I have already done). The game takes up 3.1MB of space and despite being free, it isn’t worth the money you spend on it.
