Critic Reviews

82 PSX Nation
A nice new fighting type game that is unique and entertaining.
75 Gaming Age
A fun little action title that's inexpensive (making it an easy impulsive purchase), and incredibly addictive at the same time, which are two qualities that do not go hand-in-hand very often.
75 Daily Radar
The addition of passable graphics, surprisingly good production values and quirky, fun gameplay make picking up this $9.99 title a pretty easy decision.
75 Game Revolution
The fast-paced action and variety of arenas make it perfect for killing some time even if it doesn't deliver the most rewarding gaming experience.
75 IGN
Deep down I hope that this game sells well, not because it's amazing, but because for ten dollars, you're not going to find a better new game.
75 Happy Puppy
Poor and rich people alike have no excuse to look elsewhere for a sensible purchase.
65 GameCritics
The second half's ridiculous difficulty hampers its full potential and causes it to lose significant points... [but] if the idea of a bloodthirsty, darkly violent version of "Marble Madness" sounds like your idea of a good time, check it out.
60 CNET Gamecenter
Enough playability, weirdness, gameplay variety, and levels to make it worth a look if you want something that won't break your bank.
60 Hot Games
If you think of it as "Road Rash" up close and personal (and want to see a game like that), then go ahead and break these balls.
53 GameSpot
If you look past a painfully weak back story and the painfully simple graphics, you'll find there is an enjoyable game to be played in Ball Breakers.
