《快打磚塊/打磚塊/磚塊快打》（アルカノイド/Arkanoid）是1986年由日本Taito所製作及發行的街機遊戲，上市後取得巨大的成功。研發團隊主要參考Atari的《Breakout》所設計，在北美市場由Romstar發行。之後移植的主機有Amiga、Apple II、DOS、Macintosh、MSX、FC/NES、Thomson、 iOS等，平台超過20種以上，不難想像當年受歡迎的程度。 

故事發生的時間不詳，來自外太空的神秘主體"DOH"攻擊母艦"ARKANOID"，並成功將其摧毀，太空船"Vaus"順利飛出逃脫，但是卻被傳送到某個空間內，需要破壞36關內的牆。於是玩家將太空船當成槳使用，利用彈珠的不規則彈跳來消除彩色磚塊。所有磚塊都消失時就能前進到下個關卡。沿路也有許多可以增強威力的道具可以使用，若球掉落在槳的下方則失去一台生命數。註:大部分版本均為33關，紅白機/NES則是36關。 

關卡沒有時間上的限制，遊戲中的磚塊有分成三種:1.普通磚塊:只要被球敲到一次就會消失，並取得分數。顏色則有八種:紫色、紅色、白色、綠色、土黃色、黃色、紫色、紫藍色。2.鐵磚塊:用球擊中至少兩次或以上才會被破壞 3.黃金磚塊:永遠都無法被破壞。 

取得部分膠囊能獲得特殊能力，例如發射子彈消除磚塊、彈珠變成三顆、每次都會黏住彈珠然後重新發射、槳(太空船)拉長。當拿到其他膠囊，就會剔除原本已經取得能力，但若失去生命時或是成功通關，該能力會自動消失。 

最多可以有兩位玩家輪流挑戰，操作方式相當簡單，單純進行左右移動，避免彈珠掉落至最下方即可。FC/NES跟PC版本都是挑戰失敗後無法接關，街機的前32關都是可以接關，但是當挑戰最後關卡失敗，失去所有生命數的時候是無法續關，這也大幅增加遊戲難度。 

如果成功擊敗最終頭目"DOH"，就會出現結局，時間會開始倒流，Vaus太空船成功逃離空間，並返回之前尚未被摧毀的母艦"ARKANOID"，訊息會顯示真正的冒險才正式展開，因為最終的"DOH"並沒有出現，也為續作留下伏筆。 

遊戲沒有存檔或是密碼輸入的設定，但是卻隱藏一些重要的密技，主要有三種: 

續關方法:當遊戲結束後重返首頁畫面，同時按住A跟B，然後按五次Select就能從挑戰失敗的舞台重新開始。 

跳關方法:登入遊戲畫面的時候，在發球前同時按A+Start直到聽到彈珠聲響，就會自動跳到下一關，最多能跳到第16關。 

AI作弊方法:當首頁標題出現時，讓遊戲的展示畫面開始，依照順序會出現第14、15、23、30跟第5關，耐心的等到第三輪開始。當畫面來到第23關的時候，會意外發現居然可以用A紐來發球，電腦通常會將彈珠控制在槳(太空船)上。啟動雷射的時候，槳就會縮小，只要掌控好時間，彈珠就會穿越槳造成生命數的損失。這時候回到首頁，用續關的密技，按住A+B的同時，按Select五次，遊戲會從第23關展開，只是顯示是第一關，第24關會顯示第二關。

"Arkanoid," also known as "Alleyway" or "Breakout," is an arcade game developed and published by Taito in 1986. After its release, the game gained tremendous success. The development team drew inspiration from Atari's "Breakout," and it was published by Romstar in the North American market. It was later ported to over 20 platforms, including Amiga, Apple II, DOS, Macintosh, MSX, FC/NES, Thomson, iOS, among others.

The story's timeframe is unspecified. The mysterious entity "DOH" from outer space attacks the mothership "ARKANOID," successfully destroying it. The spaceship "Vaus" escapes but is transported into a different space, where the player must destroy walls across 36 levels. Players use the spaceship as a paddle, utilizing the irregular bouncing of the ball to eliminate colored bricks. Advancing to the next level occurs when all bricks disappear. Along the way, various power-up capsules enhance capabilities, such as shooting bullets, turning the ball into three, sticky balls, or elongating the paddle. Losing a life occurs when the ball falls below the paddle.

There is no time limit for each level. Bricks in the game come in three types: regular bricks (disappear with one hit), iron bricks (require at least two hits), and gold bricks (indestructible).

The game doesn't have a save or password system, but there are three hidden cheats:

1.Continuing: After the game ends, return to the main screen, hold down A and B, then press Select five times to restart from the last failed stage.

2.Skipping levels: On the game screen before launching the ball, simultaneously press A + Start until you hear the ball sound, automatically advancing to the next level, up to level 16.

3.AI cheating: At the title screen, let the game's demo cycle through stages until the 23rd level. At this point, you can use the A button to launch the ball, and the computer usually keeps the ball on the paddle. Activate the laser when the paddle shrinks; with careful timing, the ball can pass through the paddle, causing life loss.

Return to the main screen, use the continuing cheat (hold A + B and press Select five times), and start the game from level 23, though it will display as level one, with level 24 showing as the second level.
