Ancient DOS Games --- Episode 57

Impact / BlockBuster




Additional Information and Corrections:

  • Yes, I'm aware the actual on-screen paddle size is barely 3 balls wide, but because the ball can pass through the very edges of the paddle I don't count them. All the other paddles shown can still hit the ball back from their edges.


  • I think part of the reason this game isn't well known is because neither of the names it's known by stand out. The word "impact" is used frequently in describing how a game affects people, the game industry, or other things, and thus pulls up links to virtually every other game in existence. "BlockBuster" pulls up nothing but links to the video rental place by the same name and movies in general.


  • One BIG tip if you wanna give this game a go is that the Magnet powerup is absolutely necessary if you want any sort of control over the ball!
