try to play level 16 by controlling the trackball within ur thumb nail.so that you can get good control of the paddle.

Notice when you go through all the levels and it re-starts at level one, everything speeds up? Level 16 is like child’s play the first round, compared with the second round. A word of warning for all you who get frustrated, Blackberries don’t float!!!

Another warning, this one health related! Sitting on the toilet for extended periods, can lead to hemorrhoids!!!!!

Hi me again, now I’m convinced that the game is rigged. Got to game 22 (15,750 score & 7 lives) in all the games I’ve played I only lost 1 life in that game now because score is high I loose 7 what a joke. Know u have some experts playing but consider the other millions

Got to second level game 14 with 15 lives, and ewnt into no 16 with 2 live. Now that’s a joke. Only lost 2 lives from game 1-13 in 2nd round and then 15 in 3 levels ?????

This game is a cheat. U can start with 150 or 350. 150 score will be higher at end of 5 game. I have played approx 1000 games never gone through 2nd game. If score is high and lots of lives u will loose them in the all before end of 1st game. Low score with 3 or 4 lives will take u to the next game which is very fast and u loose out. As soon as u pickup a icon it goes full speed. U can all enjoy the game I can’ play cheating games

My high score is 44850. That’s two and half times around… Yep, hopelessly addicted.

Well, I am glad I read this I was beginning to believe I was the only one who just could not pass level 16. I have only passed it a couple times with the help of catch or gun. It is probably the worst when you get flip or something else stupid like that. Right now I am on level 11 with only 6 lives. But I haven’t lost any lives this whole game, how do all the rest of you people get like 60+ lives

Hi I am addicted to this game and play it atleast 4-5 hours a day (while travelling in the subway). I am playing a game right now, with a score of 93580 and i still have 50 lives to go… How can i submit my high score???

[Editor's reply: Unfortunately, you can't submit your score until it's over! This has frustrated many players in the past who've had insanely high scores, only to have their phone reset or their battery die, with their chance of a high score dying with it.]

Like most here I am a BB addict. I have a Curve 8900. I’m on my 3rd or 4th trip past round 2, as I have had reboots usually due to dropping the phone like everyone else. It takes me 6-12 months to get escape velocity again and survive past round 2. It seems you constantly have to relearn ball control because the track ball changes over time. I have a few issues that I don’t see people talking about so I’ll bring them up here.

-It seems that the playing field is shifted to the left one or two pixels, as compared to my old BB7000 years ago. Because of this, the ball will occasionally “slink” up or down the right wall, past bricks etc. Sometimes this is helpful, but it usually is very unhelpful.
-Where it shows my score I can only see 4 digits because the font size is too big to display the full score. So I can only guess what my score is now at 15x. The digits it shows are the middle 4 digits.
-Compared to my old 7000, the game play on the 8900 is less smooth- the ball is a little jittery as it moves across the screen. This gave me headaches at first, but I’m used to it now. But the track ball is much better for playing than the 7000s track wheel (I never got past 2x until I got the 8900).
-My phone seems to be slowing down and sometimes stalls for 5-10 seconds at a time. This often happens at just the wrong moment and can result in loss of lives.

I can relate as well! I was at 1.7 million when my device reset on it’s own, had 1.5 million when it went totally belly up and I was issued a new Bold, have lost my score 4 times due to 3 resets (I actually elected to remove some programs to free up memory one time so that was self-inflicted) and I dropped it and the battery dropped out! The good thing is: the last two times this happened, I was able to immediately get through the game twice which gets you back to the Promise Land of easy points. I must say that at the level I’m at now (about 3 years of playing this game) level 13 doesn’t give me any trouble. The level I hate is the one (Iforget the number) where you have like five tiers of bricks and you’re hoping for a “catch” or “long” to come down especially before the frame starts dropping. This is a very simple game but there is some finese to it in order to get through all the levels twice. I have found myself getting better as a player when something does go wrong and I’m back at square one. That’s when the blood starts pumping and you sit on edge trying to get back to the Promise Land

I am not alone! Oh boy how I can relate to all the frustration, foot jerking reaction and sheer torment of level 16. Stick in there gamers, I’m on level 118, at 1.9 million and 950 lives, I will reach 1000 lives then just concentrate on scores, but I will teach this sucker who is boss first! LOL

Why does the game reset sometimes on its own? I see this posted over and over on here but it seems no one has an answer. You would think this would be an easy fix. Anyone had any luck with this?

[Editor's reply: Don, it's probably the BlackBerry crashing. BlackBerry O/S is notoriously unstable when running multiple apps. Unfortunately I'm not really sure what you can do, perhaps besides limit which applications you are using.]
