Learn About Shrink Bricks
Shrink Bricks is an educational twist on the block-breaking idea. You control a small paddle that bounces numbered balls upward toward bricks. Each brick has a number written on it. Every time a ball hits a brick, that brick’s number goes down by the ball’s value. When the count reaches zero, the brick disappears.
What makes this different is how the balls themselves carry numbers. A green ball with a “2” shrinks a brick by 2 points. A red ball with a “3” shrinks it by 3, and so on. That turns the game into a subtraction puzzle — you’re not just hitting bricks but also thinking about which numbered ball will reduce the brick’s count exactly to zero. Choosing the right ball at the right time helps you clear the stage more efficiently.
As you play, more bricks appear with bigger numbers. You need to keep track of your ball sequence and aim carefully so you don’t waste turns. The fun is a mix of arcade reflexes and math practice. Shrink Bricks makes subtraction feel active, because you literally see the numbers shrinking down with each hit.
