Help with BreakFriend

A duel above the clouds. Build a little fort, fire one shot, and send your move as a link, or play solo against the computer.

Playing

How do I start a game?

Tap Start, type your name and build your fort around your heartstone. Then send the link to a friend in any message. They build their fort and take the first shot.

How do I build?

Pick a piece in the bar at the bottom and tap a column of your fort to stack it. Pieces without support fall. Undo takes back the last piece you placed this turn.

How do I aim?

Press Aim, then drag back anywhere on the screen, like pulling a sling. The dotted line shows the start of the arc. Wind and gale mills bend it after that. On a computer the arrow keys fine-tune the aim.

What do the pieces do?

Timber takes one hit, stone two. A gale mill blows incoming shells back. A bolt tower shoots down the first shell that comes close; a heavy shell needs two of them.

Links

Where is the game saved?

In the link. Everything after the # sign holds the game, and browsers never send that part to a server. Your device remembers which side you are on.

I opened my own link

That shows your own move and says you are waiting. Open the link your friend sends back to take your turn.

I opened an old link

If you have already replied to it, the game says so and offers to open your latest move.

Can I play alone?

Yes. Solo puts you against 1 to 5 computer forts on Easy, Normal or Hard. Everyone fires at everyone, and the last heartstone standing wins. Your game is saved on your device, and Continue on another device sends it to another phone or computer as a link.

Can we play on one phone?

Yes. Choose Pass & play, or tap Pass & play after sending a move.

Sound

I can't hear anything

Check the sound button in the top corner. On iPhone and iPad the game respects the silent switch.

Still stuck?
