Bric-a-Brack - Destroying Bricks Quickly

Hey guys,

I've just get a few tips for you with Bric a Brac. The ball is your number one priority. If you see a power up falling and you think you wont get the ball in time if you go for the power up, then go for the ball.

Remember, you want to either destroy those bricks quickly, or get points quickly.

Also, try and get your ball to go diagonally so that it goes between the sides of the bricks and game area. Usually, you'll get many points this way as the ball usually keeps bounce against the bricks and wall, whilst going upwards. It might then also go above the lot of bricks, getting you more points by bouncing up and down.

If the ball gets too fast for you to handle ( for example gets faster than your platform thing ) then try to make it go as horizontally as you can. That way it will cover more ground on it's way and will give you more time to think.

In some cases, it is good to let the ball go off of the game board in multiplayer mode in return for a new, fresh ball either if it is small or gets too slow. Remember, in multiplayer mode, the faster your ball is, the faster you are likely to clear your bricks in the game area. But in single player mode, the ball is your top priority. ;)

Thanks to Zlia for also adding some input aswell. Those are the top tips combined by both Spirit of Water and Zlia.

Sometimes in multiplayer games it's better to let the ball fall off on purpose. In case your bouncing thing get's too small or the ball get's too slow.
In multiplayer faster ball = faster clear.
But in single player the ball should still be your top priority.

All you have to do is not let the ball fall off. :D
Try to keep it slow so it's easier to handle. Keeping your platform right under it ALL the time will help too.
EDIT: It might take you a while to get it. It's really slow to get. :(
