Description of Blockbuster
Offering action in a world of arcade, paddle / pong, Blockbuster (also known as Impact!, Impact) is an abandonware developed by Audiogenic Software Ltd. and published by Mindscape, Inc.. Released in 1988, you wander around in a 3rd-person perspective.
Impact! is a quite good Breakout clone by Audiogenic with simple graphics but they do their job quite well. The bonus-system works a bit different to the usual Arkanoid way, in that you pick up an "extra-increaser" item and click the mouse button, when you want to activate one - as seen in the arcade shoot'em up Nemesis. I remember this game as being one of those two or three games a year that were reviewed for the IBM-PC back then in my favorite computer games magazine ASM. Overall a decent game and one of the better Breakout clones, but very tough in difficulty. Runs like a dream even on a Pentium II/450 under Windows 98.
