Block Shock Reviews

Getting a solid 60 FPS on my Ryzen1700/1080GTX with 16 GB ram. This game lives up to its claims. I haven't had any addictions before so I can't say what that feels like, but I do feel some kind of emotion while playing this game. Maybe this is what addiction feels like. It's also true I have never experienced a block game like this before, and thats saying a lot coming from a gamer who started back in the DOS days. Unfortunetly I could not beat the game tonight, thus I believe I am now a carrier of 'block shock'. I am not sure what symptoms I'm about to experience, but I take this wording to mean I will have to beat the game to cure myself of 'block shock'. The suffering mentioned in the game's description is a little scary still. So since I'll be back playing, I am excited about getting all the achievements. I have never got all the achievements in a game before. So that will be a pretty awesome experience.

You can not change the direction the ball is going ever. Sometimes you destroy all the blocks and it will not register so you are left bouncing the ball for the rest of your life.

A game-breaking bug results in levels not progressing even after completion. This was reported in the discussions over a year ago, and there has been absolutely no developer contact.

I stupidly didn't read the reviews before buying this game for 0,39 euro. Its so bugged and uncontrollable, that its impossible to play. You can change directions, next level won't load if you die even once and you often get stuck in a loop that's almost impossible to get out of. Stay away from this game. Only reason I keep playing, is to try and save my avg. completion rate.

So... I was so excited then I saw this on steam because I loved DXball when I was a kid. But this is so bad I would'nt recommend this to any1 I like. First of all you cant change the direction of the ball what so ever. And sometimes it will be caught in a loop and continue for ages and there is nothing you can do to change it except to catch it. Second thing is when you finally beat a level it could continue with a black screen and a bouncing ball forever (happend to me twice during the little time I played). When that happens you cant just restart that one level you have to start the whole game over, which sucks. Too bad, love the idea but its very poorly executed..

I love brick breakers/arkanoids and this one even as simple as it's made could have been an ok timewaster but unfortunately it has a bug that still hasnt been fixed since the release a year ago. Before mentioned bug forces the player to complete the entire game with one ball because if you die you will have to restart the game from scratch because even if you smash all the bricks with the next one the game will get stuck. Its propably doable to complete the game as i reached level 7 but i'll argue that its propably only a very small minority that would be able to do that. My advice stay far away from this game and propably the developers games as well because if he cant take the time to fix what seems like a pretty simple bug he doesnt really desserve to get paid either.
