About this challenge

Kitchen Cleanup is challenge 8 in the ten-part Brick Break collection. It uses the same core rules as the other challenges in this family, with its own settings: brick rows: 4; movement speed: 279 px/s. Choose it when you want a hard round, or use the previous and next buttons to adjust the challenge.

Rules and controls

Keep the ball in play and clear the themed blocks in Kitchen Cleanup. Move your mouse or finger across the board; use Left and Right on a keyboard. Your result appears above the board when the round ends. Restart begins a new round; it does not continue the previous board. The game keeps a small record of completed rounds in this browser.

Make your next round better

Aim away from the middle of the paddle to change the rebound angle. A ball that travels almost sideways needs patience. Move early and wait for it to return. If the current challenge feels too demanding, go back one level and focus on the basic pattern before increasing the pace or board size.

Playing on a phone

The board adapts to the width of your screen. Use the displayed buttons or direct touch controls. For word and number inputs, tap the text field to bring up the keyboard. Put your phone in portrait orientation for the clearest view of the controls. Timing games may feel different across devices because screens and input hardware respond at different speeds.

Part of a collection, with a clear goal

This is one of ten variations of Brick Break, not a separate game engine. PLAYDAY contains 30 game types and 300 playable challenges in total. Each challenge has an individual page so you can return to the rules, save a favourite and choose a suitable level.
