Super Hyper Ball 2 for iPhone

Flip, smash and shake in Super Hyper Ball 2

Super Hyper Ball 2 is a mobile arcade game that combines elements of pinball and block-breaking games like Breakout and Arkanoid. You'll have to bounce your ball around the pinball machine not only to score points but also to pick up powerups, break blocks and bash bosses.

Retro fusion arcade action

In Super Hyper Ball 2, you control not only traditional pinball flippers but also an Arkanoid-style central paddle. You can also shake your mobile device to produce an effect like banging or tilting a pinball machine, although you can't do it too many times in the same level. The graphics have an 80s-influenced retro look, with lots of bright lights and neon. The game looks good, but the combination of flipper and paddle controls takes a good deal of getting used to. Controlling the game can be very difficult, especially when the ball is moving around quickly -- and in some levels, with the right power-ups in play, it moves around very quickly indeed. At other times, the game simply requires patience. Once you launch your ball deep into a mass of bricks, it can bounce around for quite a while without you needing to do anything except be alert for when it comes back.

Super Hyper Ball 2 has a cool retro aesthetic and a fun concept, but the high difficulty level might make it too frustrating for casual players.
