There’s also bombs that will destroy the sliding bar if it comes in contact with it.

The best game is…Swipe Brick Breaker. This game is unlike the rest. It doesn’t have a sliding bar. Instead, it uses swipe interactions and aiming to launch the ball. You don’t have to return the ball either. It’s the perfect brick-breaking game. Just sit back and watch the ball break the bricks.
