Prepare for an eye-popping experience when you play NeoBall, an incredible 3D Breakout game from the publishers of Magic Ball 2. The levels aren’t built out of simple blocks, as in other similar games; rather, animated scenes from the real world take shape before your eyes. After the stage is set, you’re set loose to wreak havoc using a paddle and a soccer ball with extraordinary abilities.

From a booming metropolis complete with towering buildings and moving traffic, to a zoo packed with wild animals, to a space station buzzing with activity, there’s never a dull moment in NeoBall. Several original power-ups increase the thrills, including one that morphs the ball into a mouse that scurries across the screen, tearing up scenery along the way.

Magic Ball 3

Featuring a stunning degree of visual detail and as much brick-bashing fun as we could cram into one release, Magic Ball 3 has changed Breakout games forever. The task before you is challenging. It's also filled with incredible sights and sounds!

Turtix

Turtix didn't know what would happen when he tried casting a powerful spell without the supervision of his teacher. When he lost control of the magic and it shattered an amulet that maintained peace and harmony throughout his world, he thought the worst had happened. Then he learned dark forces had invaded five islands and kidnapped all of the young turtles from the School of Magic! Determined to set things right, the brave and commendable Turtix set out to rescue his friends and collect the scattered pieces of the amulet.

Hidden Expedition: Titanic

On April 14, 1912, the ill-fated RMS Titanic struck an iceberg in the Atlantic Ocean. Within hours, the majestic steamship, along with hundreds of passengers, lay in a watery grave deep beneath the surface. As a member of the Hidden Expedition Adventure League, you're responsible for exploring the ruins of the once majestic ocean liner and collecting artifacts for the Titanic Museum.

I love this game. Have had no problems with it at all. With 3 skill levels, I'd say its for everyone, especially a 16 yr old girl, as asked by Nazza in #28. Thanks for all these great games, guys. Thumbs up for this one, for sure.

Same problem here also.

#28 - "Naza" - With 3 skill lecvels I think you won't get too bored too quickly. Good use of geometry and physics will challenge you. Amusing object and background detail varies for each level. IMO it has a "clean" presention as opposed to being too cluttered with alot of targets.

Would this game be good for a 16 yr old girl?
I dont wanna download it and see that its boring...

#27

I agree with #1 (mark) - It's not really an "eye-popping experience", but it is a good game.
What does get to me is that once again, all the power-ups are time-limited (except those that are amount-limited, like the weapons). Also, the ability to "rotate" the camera (relative to a point) with the right mouse button is made almost completely useless by the fact that you can't make your paddle move in respect to the camera, and you can't move (zoom in/out) the camera. Despite all that, though, I much prefer it over Timebreaker.

#8 (Paco) - I disagree. The pace (nor anything else) does not make this game unsuitable for children.

#13 (Denise) - I'm fairly certain he was only referring to the pace of the game - it /might/ be too fast for a child to keep up with; In my opinion, however, so much the better to train their reflexes.

Hi stefaniceice (9)... I see that when the activation server is busy (about 5% of the time). Although trying just 5 to 10 minutes later it should go through just fine.

Really nice game...but little bit hard at beginning when you don't know what to eat and what to avoid. Highly recommend it!

Hi Denise! I didn't see anything wrong with the game with children. Just the game plays a bit fast and it is hard to keep up with.

I was all set to download until reading #8. Paco what do you mean its not for children, and thank you for sharing that. What is the age range for this game please? GOTD is there a way to add "E" (everyone) or "T" (teen) or "A" on the description info so I can be a better informed parent? Thanks for this site!

#10

A very nice implementation of Breakout. Seem a bit more challenging then the normal top down styles partially due to it being 3D and multi-layered, but you can always move the camera around.

Reply | Comment by jd – 17 years ago – Did you find this comment useful? yes | no (0)

ive had problems today..normally it activates easy and with no problems..now its saying quote:

activation falied to connect to GOTD software activation is not possible at the moment please try again later or check your firewall settings

i turned all my firewalls off and im still getting the same

Reply | Comment by stefaniceice – 17 years ago – Did you find this comment useful? yes | no (0)

This one is not for children.
It is fast-paced, and over-all not so good as Magic-ball 2.
But it is a good addition to the arkanoïd family.
And it does work in windowed mode (although it lacks hi-res modes).
Thanks to Gotd !

Nice game, but the graphics need more modern detail...look like original Mario Bros. Nintendo graphics

Reply | Comment by kapper – 17 years ago – Did you find this comment useful? yes | no (0)

I LOVE breakout, & this puts a totally unique spin on a classic game. If you've been looking for something different, yet still "familiar" then DON'T MISS this one!!! Many thanx, GoTD guys.

This is another game I purchased early last year, and would recommend it to any arkanoid fan. It's quirky and has lots of original features that make it a must have for any arcade fan as well. It plays well and the graphics are nice to. Good one GoTD team.

I don't know that I'd call this an "eye-popping experience" necessarily, but it's a very cool and enjoyable game nonetheless. Thanks again to GOTD and to Alawar.
