"I think that it’s pretty safe to assume that anyone who has ever played a video game has probably played some form of a Breakout clone whether they were aware of it or not. The concept is such a simple one that this type of game is passed over by most gamers as “casual”. While the term may be apt when describing a game where the object is to bounce a ball off of a player controlled platform to break bricks at the opposite end of the screen, I don’t think that “casual” is a valid way to describe Wizorb. This game is astoundingly deep when it comes to mechanics which makes it a blast to play. But there is a catch: this game is also frustratingly difficult."
“After over 10 years since its initial release, it's impressive how well Wizorb has held up in all of its awesomely retro glory. For a simple Breakout experience, you can't get much better than this so I recommend it to anyone who enjoys breaking bricks.” - A.J. Maciejewski from Video Chums.
Game-Modo’s Travis Blair reached out to Beatshapers, a developer behind several PlayStation games found on various platforms, to learn about a company that seems to really enjoy gaming.
EG:There are some ideas so ludicrous, yet so strangely perfect, that you wonder why nobody thought of them before. Case in point: why not squeeze a JRPG into Breakout? That's what Wizorb does, and the result is quite wonderful.
