Color Bricks: compare paths before choosing an angle
Written for AXFLY. These are reasoning exercises based on the game description, not claims of tested level solutions.
A direct hit is only one option
A shot aimed straight at a nearby brick is easy to understand. An angled shot may travel through more of the formation, depending on how the current game handles bounces. First observe a simple shot and use its visible path to understand the rules.
Trace the first two contacts
Before launching, predict the first surface the ball meets and the direction after that contact. Then inspect what lies on the second segment. This is a manageable planning task even when predicting a whole chain of collisions is impractical.
Choose access over appearance
A crowded part of the board looks attractive, but a narrow opening may prevent entry. Compare the actual corridor to the ball with the visual size of the target group. A smaller reachable group can be a more reliable choice than an impressive formation behind a blocked path.
Record one observation
After a shot, identify the first point where the path differed from your prediction. Adjust the next angle using that observation. Avoid treating every unsuccessful shot as evidence that you need a larger change; a small aiming correction may be enough.
