Power-Ups and Power-Downs

The game features several Power-Ups, all of which help you in different ways. They randomly appear whenever you destroy any of the bricks with your ball. But bear in mind that there are also few Power-Downs which can be unhelpful. Power-Ups and Power-Downs will be activated whenever you collect them with your bat. Be sure to collect them before they completely fall off the playfield.
