About the Game

Break bricks. Fix reality.

Schizm is an arcade style block-breaker with RPG elements.  Set in a world that has been shattered, you must break bricks and collect shards to heal reality. Aim your ball, read the board, and carve a path through bricks that sometimes fight back. Choose a hero and unlock its ability tiers and powers by breaking consecutive bricks.

Overview

You play through a reality that has come apart at the seams. Each level is a puzzle of destructible bricks and moving hazards that you clear by launching and steering your ball. Land clean hits and chain reactions to progress deeper into ten distinct biomes, each with its own mechanics, enemies, and a climactic boss fight.

Every biome is built on original, hand-crafted environment art. From sunlit Grasslands to the molten Infernal Forge to the Shattered Throne, each world has its own palette, mood, and visual identity, so descending deeper always feels like arriving somewhere new. It is easy to pick up and hard to put down, whether you want a quick session or a long climb.

Key Features

  • Original hand-crafted environment art that gives all 10 biomes their own look and feel.

  • Themed, curated soundtrack with distinct biome tracks and dedicated boss music.

  • 100 handcrafted levels across 10 themed biomes.

  • 10 boss battles, each a test of aim and timing.

  • 8 playable heroes, each with unique abilities and play styles.

  • Reactive brick types that freeze, teleport, deflect, mirage, and bend your ball's path.

  • Endless mode with wave-based ranks and per-biome leaderboards.

  • Challenging bonus levels to score extra shards.

Fix a broken world, stop the Schizm!
