Personal review

An Arkanoid clone with big levels. You pick up currency to buy extras of different prices. The difficulty level is high, but fair and challenging. Generally well programmed and if the graphics wouldn't be so boring this could have been a great game. Includes level-editor.

Official description

Trapped - in a 1970s arcade game! Every escape route is blocked by a wall of brightly coloured bricks. Powerfully addictive, Impact has 80 built-in screens, plus 48 more that you can design yourself - as hard, as simple, as much fun as you like. Hidden on each screen are special tokens - collect them if you can. Use them to buy one of nine powerful weapons, or keep the, until the end of the screen to score a bonus. If you thought the fun had gone out of computer games then Impact is the game that'll change your mind!
