Arkanoid
is a 1986 block breaker video game developed and published by Taito for Japanese arcades; in North America, it was published by Romstar.

Some blocks contain power-ups that have various effects, such as increasing the length of the Vaus, creating several additional balls, or equipping the Vaus with cannons. Other blocks may be indestructible or require multiple hits to break.
