Orbit Breaker icon ORBIT BREAKER

A brick breakerfor the crown

The bricks sit in rings around the middle of the watch face. The paddle rides the outer edge. Turn the crown and it sweeps the whole circle, both ways, with no stop at either end.

Get it on Google Play Free to start. Wear OS 3 and up.

Where you hit it decides where it goes

Hit the orb with the middle of the paddle and it goes straight in. Hit it with an end and it goes sideways. Move the paddle through the hit and the orb takes that motion too. In HEART’s SURGE levels, a tap also releases a banked cut through the bricks.

Crown first

One turn of the crown carries the paddle all the way round. Three sensitivity settings, and it can be inverted. A watch with no usable crown gets a drag along the outer edge.

On the watch alone

No phone, no account, no server of ours. The game's own code makes no network call. Scores and saved runs are stored privately on the watch, with optional Android system backup. Google Play handles the purchase and restore.

Put your wrist down

The run is saved and picks up at the same step. Nothing runs while the app is in the background.

Built to be read

Four colour sets, one for deuteranopia, one for tritanopia, one in grey. Reduced motion and high contrast are settings.

Daily Orbit and Daily Puzzle

A 90-second score challenge and a daily Chrono puzzle. The same challenges for everyone; puzzles grow tougher through the week and consecutive solves build a streak.

Your pulse is optional

Choose HEART to see an explanation and choose live or simulated pulse. With permission, the watch sensor adapts gameplay while HEART is open in the foreground. Decline, or play without a compatible sensor, and a simulated pulse takes over. Other modes do not need the permission. There is no background health tracking or access to Health Connect records.

HEART is a game, not a medical device; it does not diagnose, treat, cure or prevent medical conditions. From version 1.10.1, measured pulse and baseline values stay in memory and are not kept in new saved runs. Readings are not sent to the developer. Read the full privacy policy.

What the game does not do

  • No ads.
  • No subscription.
  • No analytics and no crash reporting service.
  • No account and no sign-in.
  • No server of ours. The game's own code makes no network call.
  • Google Play is used for the one purchase, the price and the restore. Nothing else needs a connection.

What it keeps

  • Settings, progress, best scores and the run in progress, in the app's own private storage on the watch.
  • The full-game unlock and the Play order number, when provided.
  • New saved runs do not retain measured heart rate or baseline. Android backup can copy game progress and settings; older backups may still contain earlier saved values. Google Play handles payment data.
