 Arkanoid
Gameplay: In Arkanoid, the player controls a small pad, known as the "vaus" space vessel, which prevents a ball from falling from the playing field, attempting to bounce it against a number of bricks.
There are a number of variations (bricks that have to be hit multiple times, flying enemy ships, etc.) and power-up capsules to enhance the vaus (expand your vaus, multiply the number of balls, equip a laser cannon, break directly to the next level), but the main gameplay remains the same.
Arkanoid was so popular that four versions of the game were developed for the arcade coin-op market: Arkanoid, Tournament Arkanoid and Revenge of Doh (Arkanoid II) both in 1987 and Arkanoid Returns in 1997.

 Inside Mac Games Review: Arkanoid: Space Ball
Arkanoid: Space Ball is a solid instantiation of its namesake, but repetitive gameplay and limited innovation prevent it from distinguishing itself from other Arkanoid clones.
Arkanoid has been ported to several home platforms (including the MacOS) and it has spawned several official sequels and numerous clones.
Arkanoid: Space Ball helps fill this gap; however, it does little to advance the genre, and at $19.95, it may cost too much for an experience that is only briefly engaging.
