Description
Block Buster was the original launch title for the Microvision, the first ever cartridge based handheld game console, and came packaged in the same box with the Microvision system.
Gameplay
Block Buster is, at it's core, a clone of the classic Atari 2600 game Breakout.
Players can choose the number of balls to be served, the speed of the ball, and the width of the paddle.
Using the built in rotating paddle controller players must move the onscreen paddle along the bottom of the screen left and right to bounce a ball against blocks with the goal of clearing as many blocks as possible.
