Have a love for Breakout, or Arkanoid style games? You know, those games where you have a paddle at the screen bottom, a ball and you have to bounce it from off your paddle breaking a set number of blocks per level? Well this game completely twists that into a whole new direction:
Instead of just hitting a wall you could be hitting chests for gems. Or a crate for keys. Or a door for entry. Or trying to defeat a boss blocking your way out. Wizorb is an intentionally retro styled game – from the music to the graphics to the old school Arkaniod feel, this indie game takes that and injects crack into the tried and true block breaking formula. It's like Legend of Zelda and Breakout had a love child and this was the glorious result.
You are trying to save a kingdom from falling towards evil and you have potions and power ups at your disposal to help counter this threat. This game is available for 240 Microsoft Points. What you get with said points is a rather interesting puzzle game that allows you to have continues (by purchasing with gained coins), use special magic attacks after filling your bar, and gives you actual plot in a genre most known for simply breaking down blocks.
So, again if you have a deep love for thing that resembles Breakout, or involves blocks and the breaking of them with a new twist, pick this one up quick.
