Summary

In the award‑winning spirit of Tetris, BreakThru! challenges you to erase as many bricks as possible before the clock runs out. You move a cursor across a colorful grid and tap any cluster of squares that touches at least two others of the same hue, causing those blocks to vanish and the remaining pieces to cascade down and sideways. The puzzle deepens when you run out of obvious matches, but special items—like an airplane that clears an entire line in its direction or a dynamite block that detonates surrounding squares—give you a way out, and you can even drop fresh, random tiles into the mix. Reviewers praised the SNES port for its easy‑to‑learn yet strategically rich gameplay and multiple modes, though they noted the graphics felt a bit dated.
