Another Vic in the Wall

About

Another Vic in the Wall is a straightforward brick-busting game where you control a paddle to hit a bouncing ball toward rows of targets. Each successful hit clears a brick and adds to your score but the challenge grows as new obstacles fill the screen. Missing the ball costs a life and you start with three. The objective is to keep playing as long as possible while the layout shifts to keep you on edge. Controls work with a keyboard or joystick and the machine code ensures smooth action for the era. This Commodore VIC-20 title from Bug-Byte Software stands out for its relentless difficulty and endless design. Unlike many arcade ports of the time it never lets up with bricks constantly reshaping the field. Released in late 1982 it’s a relic of early home computing but still delivers a pure test of reflexes. The lack of slowdown and responsive handling make it memorable even decades later despite its barebones presentation.
