| Arkanoid (Video Game) | comment |
Arkanoid is a 1986 Action Game by Taito. It is very similar to Breakout, with the addition of powerups, enemies, multi-hit and indestructible blocks, distinct levels, and a boss at the end. These elements were quickly adopted by similar games.Several sequels were made, such as Arkanoid: Revenge of Doh, Arkanoid: Doh It Again, Arkanoid Returns, Arkanoid DS, Arkanoid Live, and most recently, Arkanoid: Eternal Battle. | |

Artifact Title | |
| Arkanoid (Video Game) / int_2b7d29e1 | comment |
Artifact Title: The Arkanoid only shows up in the backstory of the first game; it's not present in any of the sequels sans DoH it Again. Arkanoid DS takes it a step further and takes place in a completely different universe that doesn't involve the Arkanoid (or the Vaus, or DoH) at all. | |

Game-Breaking Bug | |
| Arkanoid (Video Game) / int_33ca811a | comment |
Game-Breaking Bug: The NES version has a glitch where if the player pauses the game on the same frame as a brick is being destroyed, the game will think that the brick is still there, rendering the level unbeatable even if every last brick has been broken. The only way to remedy this is to either get a Game Over or use the Cheat Code that lets you skip to the next level (if possible, since the code stops working at Round 16). | |

Your Princess Is in Another Castle!: In DoH it Again, the game plays credits once you defeat Doh at stage 33. If you keep playing, the game roll credits once again at stage 66. If you keep playing even more, you will fight the final boss for the third time at stage 99... And get a second, happy ending. Good luck figuring out this on your own. | |

No Fair Cheating: If you use the Arkanoid DS Paddle Controller with Space Invaders Extreme, your high scores will be marked to show that you used it. Additionally, it can't be used for Ranking Mode. Space Invaders Extreme 2 lifts the Ranking Mode ban. Paddle users will have a "P" shown next to their scores, but there is no way to separate ranking by input method. However, in versus mode, there is an option that prevents the game from matching you up with paddle players. | |

| Arkanoid (Video Game) / int_58efc711 | comment |
The Goomba: In the games that have enemies, everything except the bouncing orbs (deflects the ball) and the teleporting slimes (randomly moves your ball to somewhere else in the level). They go down in one hit, and touching the Vaus kills them not you: Their purpose is not to inflict direct harm, only to throw your ball off trajectory. On the other hand, bosses do kill you with their attacks. | |

Mook Maker | |
| Arkanoid (Video Game) / int_6ec03ba1 | comment |
Mook Maker: The unnamed miniboss (which resembles some sort of pulsating alien egg) at the halfway point of Revenge of DoH. It's fought similar to DoH, but instead of projectiles, it constantly spawns Mooks to make it more difficult for the Vaus to hit it with the ball, which can be particularly frustrating if it spawns a mook right in front of the ball to block a hit. Which set of mooks spawned is randomly chosen; woe betide the player if the black spheres were chosen. | |

The only things it will bounce off are the walls and the Vaus. However in all games starting from DoH it Again, it receives a Nerf to where it can no longer destroy gold bricks. | |

Power-Up Letdown: The Twin powerup in Arkanoid: Revenge of DoH. The Vaus splits into two smaller copies that move together. It only barely increases the surface area of the Vaus, was distinctly smaller than both the Extend powerup or the Image/Illusion powerup, and there is a gap between the two Vaus units that the ball can fall through, costing a life. In any game, the Laser powerup if there are gold bricks between the player and breakable bricks on the playfield. | |

Poison Mushroom: The Reduce powerup, which shrinks the Vaus. For expert players, this is Cursed with Awesome, since you then get doubled points as long as it's active, and extra lives are available at certain point plateaus. However, for less expert players, and any player who sees one rolling down right where the ball is about to fall, it clearly is detrimental. On top of that, it is almost identical visually to the Player capsule. | |

Minus World | |
| Arkanoid (Video Game) / int_d91700a7 | comment |
Minus World: If you use cheats to skip past DoH's stage in the arcade version of the first game, you will find yourself with levels arranged with no pattern or design, some mis-colored blocks (only in official versions, bootlegs don't have any mis-colored blocks), some blocks that are completely invisible, and Silver blocks that take many hits to destroy, rewarding about 200,000 points per Silver block. You can also glitch the ball off the play field and make it reach ridiculous speeds if it hits the roof of the play field. | |

Nerf | |
| Arkanoid (Video Game) / int_e545e190 | comment |
Nerf: In Revenge of DoH, it was possible to combine the Disrupt and New Disrupt powerups with other powerups while the extra balls were active. Starting in DoH it Again, acquiring any other Powerup will cause all but one of the balls to disintegrate in the spot. Revenge of DoH's Mega Ball powerup was capable of tearing through any block, whenever they be colored, Silver, or Gold. DoH it Again altered it so it now rebounds off Gold Blocks. | |

Every 10,000 Points | |
| Arkanoid (Video Game) / int_e90e91de | comment |
Every 10,000 Points: By default, you get your first two extra lives at 20,000 and 60,000 points, and then you get each subsequent extra life for every 60,000 points afterwards in the Arcade version of the original Arkanoid. This was changed to 100,000 points, 200,000 points, and for every 200,000 points thereafter in Revenge of DoH. | |

Mutually Exclusive Power-Ups | |
| Arkanoid (Video Game) / int_f53dd5eb | comment |
Mutually Exclusive Power-Ups: Only one powerup is allowed at a given time. However, if you pick up a Disruption followed by a Mega Ball, the extra balls remain on the screen and can quickly clear the board. There is also a rare glowing powerup in Revenge of DoH that combines these two powerups for you. | |

Downer Beginning: The mother ship Arkanoid has been destroyed, and while you've managed to escape in the Vaus Escape Pod, you're trapped in space warped by someone. What does that mean? Who knows, just break all these bricks. | |

Warp Zone | |
| Arkanoid (Video Game) / int_f963c339 | comment |
Warp Zone: The Break powerup opens up the path to the next level (or levels, in later installments). However, unlike a proper level clear, it does not cause the ball to vanish, so a player hoping to take the warp can still lose a life if the ball drops out of the play field before the Vaus can get to it (and for insult on the injury, if the player fails to make it, the Warp Zone closes upon the start of the next life). | |
