The era and time of this story is unknown. After the mothership "Arkanoid" was destroyed, a spacecraft "Vaus" scrambled away, only to be trapped in the void… You control the Vaus and have to penetrate 32 levels and then confront the "Dimension Changer" whom you must destroy in order to reverse time and resurrect the "Arkanoid". Frantic action and split second timing combine to produce the most addictive and compulsive game.

Arkanoid (アルカノイド, Arukanoido) expanded upon Atari's Breakout games of the 1970s by adding power-ups, different types of bricks, a variety of level layouts, and visual layering and depth. The ball being "stuck" to the paddle at the beginning of the round? Arkanoid was the first game to have that; in all Breakout clones before that the ball materialized out of thin air somewhere between the bat and bricks.
