Gamers in their 30s or 40s likely remember arcade classics such as "Breakout" or "Arkanoid." The goal of these games is to prevent a bouncing ball from hitting on the floor by moving a paddle along the bottom of the screen. While doing so, players must also aim the ball to destroy a number of colored bricks on the screen; gamers advance to the next level once all bricks have been destroyed.
"Break'em All" is a pocket version of these games, with an incredible three million variations of randomly generated boards to complete. Players can also catch a dozen power-ups, such as one that initiates multi-ball and another that turns your paddle into a gun to fire away at remaining bricks. "Break'em All" offers multiple solo game modes, special bonus levels with huge "boss" characters to defeat and wireless multiplayer support for up to eight Nintendo DS players over a wireless network. 
There's nothing offensive in this game. But be careful, Breakout might have impressed you and your friends back in the day, but most kids today aren't going to get into it no matter how much multiplayer or variants there are. This one is kid safe, but aimed squarely at adults..
