Moby ID: 199270

Description

A criminal mastermind under the name of Dr. Fellowbug has stolen the world's most famous painting and it is up to you to help Sophie and her team to retrieve them back.

Funkiball Adventure is a Breakout variant in which you will go to a journey around the world to recover some of the world's most famous works of art. The task is to destroy all the bricks that contain loot which comes in the form of gold and gems, and to catch as many loot as possible. Unlike other Breakout games, levels must be completed within a time limit. The bat can be used to hit the ball and give it more speed and allow it to destroy multiple bricks at once. It can be charged to boost this effect to maximum.

Each stage's fifth level has a painting that must be uncovered by destroying all the bricks that cover it. When a level is finished, stars are awarded based on certain goals. Each level has a secret golden puzzle piece that will unlock bonus levels every time when you collect five of them. In some levels, there can be bricks either need multiple hits to be destroyed or indestructible bricks. Some bricks can even regenerate or be revived. There are also falling hazards that can destroy your bat on contact and the only way to destroy them is with the ball.

There are power-ups to make completing the level much easier and other certain elements like keys that can open inaccessible areas in the level when destroyed, or ball locks that can release all balls locked in them or transport them into otherwise unreachable places. Lab levels are bonus levels that become available when a necessary amount of secrets is collected.
