Breakout: Recharged

"I can easily say that Breakout: Recharged is my favourite Atari Recharged game so far. From its tried-and-true core gameplay that has been duplicated countless times over the decades to its clever modernizations, it&s;s a must-have for anyone who loves …"

"Unlike the other titles in the “series”, Breakout: Recharged is more of a safe choice than an attempt to please nostalgic fans. It can even guarantee itself as a stand-alone title, but for those who want to revisit all the …"

"Breakout: Recharged features a standard brick-breaking concept that still resonates today, and the addition of power-ups is a nice touch. However, those changes only bring it on par with what others did in the space decades ago, and when compared …"

"Breakout: Recharged is a safe game. Definitely not the biggest innovation in the “block breaker” genre. Much of what it offers has been seen in the past, and some gameplay issues end up getting in the way. However, the title …"

"While there is fun to be had with Breakout Recharged, I really can&s;t suggest you go out and buy it at lunch. At $10 the game is simply overpriced and not worth your time. When the game is finally on …"

"The developer knew to keep the focus on the fundamentals - multiple game modes to keep things fresh, a way to play with friends, leaderboards, and a clean look. If you&s;re not a fan of brick breakers, then this won&s;t …"

"Among the Atari retro reduxes I’ll admit that Breakout was one of the titles I was most excited to see enhanced..."

"Breakout: Recharged is a simple affair, but it’s a wonderful recreation of a classic game. A great job has been done in modernising Breakout, and the new challenge mode makes it a worthwhile investment. It may be available on PC, …"

"The main problem with Breakout: Recharged is that the block breaking formula has spawned literal hundreds of different games over the past decades, a good chunk of them featuring more gameplay elements and content than this one. Why should I …"

"Breakout still has a lot to offer thanks to its catchy gameplay. The new neon visual adds a fresh touch to the game, but sometimes you get lost in all the effects and explosions on the screen, and the controls …"

"Atari&s;s Recharged series has produced some fantastic remakes of classic arcade hits, but that series&s; latest entry, Breakout Recharged, is definitely its weakest so far. That&s;s less the fault of the dev teams or the work they&s;ve put into these …"

"There&s;s not much to say about Breakout: Recharged other than it&s;s a decent-looking revamp of Breakout. The gameplay is still a lot of fun, which is why official and unofficial Breakout games have been released on so many platforms over …"

"The problem with Breakout: Recharged is being asked to pay the thick end of a tenner for something that doesn&s;t re-invent the wheel, and can be experienced better elsewhere. Sadly it just represents poor value."
