To check the current BrickBreaker leaderboard, hit the BlackBerry’s right-click menu from inside BrickBreaker. Select the High Score option. The leaderboard isn’t available on the Internet — you can only see it on your BlackBerry device.
As of this writing, the #1 BrickBreaker high score is 2,121,701,232, by a player named Johanna.
Honestly, I sometimes have a hard time believing scores like this. I know that it’s possible to rack up an unlimited score if you follow my BrickBreaker game strategy. However, to reach a score like Johanna’s — over two billion points! — you’d need to go through all 34 levels roughly 100,000 times. If you worked through all 34 levels every single day, by my reckoning it would still take over 300 years to get a score that high. So, something’s fishy there.
That being said, you can still rack up a 100,000 or a 1,000,000 point score. You might not make it to the top of the leaderboard (unless you have 300 years of free time), but you’ll still have the satisfaction of “beating” BrickBreaker, and perhaps having the highest score amongst your friends!
How about you: what’s your highest BrickBreaker score right now? Let me know in the comments section below.
Update: I created an unofficial BrickBreaker leaderboard. If you want, you can take a picture of your 6- or 7-figure high score using a friend’s phone. Submit the photo to me using the form on the unofficial leaderboard page, and I’ll post it up on this site.

Hello Pierre,
Great website!
I just thought I would let you know my present score. 2,028010 with 451 lives and on my 120th circuit. Sadly, I just exited, without pausing and have lost the lot!
Never mind, I can maybe now concentrate on other things.
Regards, Graham
Thanks – bummer about the lost game though!
Hello
Does somebody know if there exists a way to recover your previous game?
I accidentally quitted the game, and I had around 3’500’000 points with more or less 1400 lives!!!!
Many thanks
Hi Bruno – oh no! Unfortunately there’s no way to recover a previous game.
Sorry to hear about the lost game. I see this happen so often, people will lose a game either by accidentally quitting or their phone resets on them.
Next time you have a good score going, feel free to submit it to my unofficial leaderboard.
Cheers,
Pierre
Im carrying on regardless till my phone freezes then ill go for the high score in ten rounds i have currently got 1,376,420 and 745 lives .Would it be an idea to compile a leader board for the first ten rounds ??
Hi Andrew – I agree we should have a separate leaderboard for this. I’ve created it here.
Hi guys
I made a new record as far as I know – 193,230 points in the first ten rounds, which gives an average 19.3 thousand per round. I submitted the picture to the leaderboard.
I was lucky getting laser on level 11 most of the rounds, but on the other hand missed couple of guns, so if you are lucky, i can imagine an average 19.5k as achievable.
happy breaking
Thanks Maso – I’ve created a new page on the site to start tracking these scores. I decided to name it Speed BrickBreaker. This will be an additional challenge for expert BrickBreaker players.
im currently on 1,280,700 with 687 lives ,as soon as possible ill take a photo and put it on this site
Nice one Andrew!
Hi Pierre
for various reasons (namely the game becomes boring after the first two rounds) I decided not to continue after ten rounds. I always terminate the game by then and record my high score at that moment. My best is 190,760, which gives an average of just slightly over 19k per round (including the first two speedy rounds).
I wonder if anyone wants to play the same game?
Best
maso
Hi Maso,
I like that idea. For a while I was personally trying to get the highest possible score after two rounds (my highest was 36,120). Like you said, this is more challenging, for those who’ve already mastered the game. I was thinking of calling it Speed BrickBreaker. Let’s see if anyone else who wants to play this chimes in on this post.
And I’ll see how I can do against you on a 10-round session!
Cheers,
Pierre

From a former discussion forum on plazmic.com, which was however shut down back in 2009, I know about someone who scored 192,620 in the first ten rounds (and 38,250 in the first two rounds) which is quite a challenge.
I have downloaded and stored that discussion. Its full of useful advice of how to improve your average score and can share it if you wish, its some 52 pages in MS Word.
have fun maso
it does get borin and i have to remember to keep it charged lol . im on 1,280,700 with 687 lives and im trying to see how many lives on average per round i can get . I like your way of going for the biggest score in two rounds .It is prob the way forward but im loathed to write this game off now until my battery dies
my high score is 3,011,110.
Wow Cherry, great score!
im on 1,280,700 with 687 lives .its not the score per round im going for its lives per round .GREAT score by the way
243,880
Nice one bubblegum!
I am frustrated with my blackberry device. I had over 1,900,000 with over 600 lives and the blackberry reset losing my score. Then I had 0ver 684,000 with over 300 lives but I had to removed my battery to reset the phone as I could not make calls. I had to sacrifice all my lives so I could save my score before resetting the phone. I then got an all time high score of over 2, 150, 000 with over 1150 lives and my phone reset itself on Christmas day losing my game. It sucks that you cannot save your score without losing all your lives. Once you get past all the levels twice, the games slows down and it is almost impossible to lose after that, apart from the crap blackberry. Is this game designed to fail when you get a good score?
Oof, those are some really tough games to lose. As someone mentioned to me a while back, it seems that the high-score champion is the person who can keep their phone from resetting for the longest period.
Score: 1.500,000+
Lives remaining: 500+
Very nice!
Score: 1.500,000+
Lives remaining: 400+
Great!
207830 and still continuing with 32 lives left
[IMG]
Nice one! I’ve added your screenshot to the unofficial leaderboard.
349,160 and ive got 109 lives! theres no way it will ever end???
You’ll be able to go on forever, until your BlackBerry freezes. It happens. If you want to you can submit a screenshot to my unofficial leaderboard.
I’m on the game that will never end – 202,000 with 35-lives, and I really don’t see how it will ever end
Once you’ve broken through the game like that, usually the way it ends is your Blackberry freezes up on you
. If you want to you can submit a screenshot to my unofficial leaderboard.
28,710. Coz im addicted
Nice — you are close to a breakthrough in your score.
Ah, and go out more plesa
Maybe I willa.
I think that you are a friki who spent his time in gilipolleces.
Read more books and be less friki and probably ugly bye bye freak boy
My score I’m still running on is 84140 and still going
Well done!
About a year ago I cracked the game and my high score went from about 32,000 to something like 700,000, but the game reset, so my high score stayed at 32,000! I’ve found my BlackBerry resets the game every six or seven weeks, which gets very frustrating. The best I’ve achieved in that limited time is about 1.4 million, although it only would show 32,000. Finally, I gave up. I knew my six weeks was running out and I had a nice score racked up, so I wasted like 400 lives so I could have a good recorded high score. I was able to kill off the game with a score of 1234560, which now shows on my BB.
I like that score, 1,234,560! Very nice.
Pierre,
Great guide! I enjoyed reading it even though I’d already mastered the game when I found it- I was googling hi-scores because I finally reached the one million milestone today in a game that’s probably been running 6 months! My best prior to that was 32,330 but having cracked ‘the turn’ as you coin it, I’ve been playing the same game ever since. Initially I was disappointed that the game gets easier, but it is nice to drop in and out of it without the obsession of beating your hi-score every time you play. Each 100,000 milestone was a nice marker to reach and also 100, then 200 lives. I’ve also found that it’s nice to let friends play screens they have never seen, or even master ‘problem’ screens practising on your BB and burning 50 lives or so that you can afford to lose.
Like you I don’t buy the 2 billion score, although it looks as if I’m going to have to get to 2M, to be anywhere near claiming a record, assuming Oscar Mexico keeps trucking!!
Cheers,
Ian
Hi Ian,
Wow, great score!! If you’d like to take a screenshot (using a camera / someone else’s phone) and email it to me, I’ll post it on the “unofficial leaderboard”.
Often people are working on a huge score and their BlackBerry freezes up before they have a chance to save it…so it’s sometimes good to keep a record!
Cheers,
Pierre
my high score is 27670
Nice. Based on your score I bet you have gotten pretty far along into the second pass through 34 levels. If you can just make it through level 34 the second time through, you’ll be in good shape to run up your score.
score 800.000 lives 522, but of course my BB bailed on me ! now it’s been two days since I started again and I’m on 64 lives and 100.000 score !
Nice one! Send in a screenshot!
now I’m on 764 lives and 963.670 score !!!!
Wow!
Today my record is about 1,540,340 with 531 lives and 88 completed the 34 levels.
Wow, incredible!
I have just hit 1,000,000 points. Only problem is I have a BlackBerry 8900, which hides most of the score. Is there a way to show the score on the screen – other than by giving up my 227 lives!
Hi Paul, wow! A big milestone there. Sorry but I don’t know of a way to show the score on screen. I know what you mean — my BB does that too. If you want, go ahead and send me a screenshot anyway and I’ll put it on the unofficial leaderboard. Thanks
16190
Nice Raymond! Once you get to around 30,000 or so, the game opens up and you’ll be able to rack up an unlimited score. At least until your BlackBerry freezes
.
I played a lot, but found two things that turned me off the game:
1) Once you get through all the levels a few times, it gets very easy. It slows down and you end up with almost unlimited lives (i.e. more than 100)
2) It would take me several weeks of playing in my spare time (in airports, on planes, etc.) to get up to half a million points and then my BB would freeze and I’d lose the game. This happened three different times.
Yeah that is really frustrating when the phone freezes and you have to reset. BrickBreaker is funny that way. Those quirks seem to make it more addictive (at least for me).
anyways this game is so addicting that i started again and got up to 150,000 with 35 lives. still playing…
my hightest score was 510,000 with 85 lives and beaten 26 times. BUT DUE TO SOME REASON MY PHONE FROZE AND MY SCORE WAS GONE!!
Ugh! Unfortunately I’ve heard that type of story quite a bit from other people too. If you want, send in your newest score in progress to the unofficial leaderboard.
Hello My current score if 12,51,345 with 265 lives. I am still playing.
Sorry 1,251,340 with 265 lives to be correct.
Wow, nice one! If you’d like, you can submit a screenshot of your score to the unofficial leaderboard.
My highscore is 114,000… pretty good…. but not the highest…
Nicely done Rob!
all,
i’m at 550,000 BUT unfortunately i forgot my Brick Breaker passoword and now cannot upload my high score
does any one knows how to retrieve BB password??
OR
how to find the BB high score lists, maybe i’ll be able to find my username??
Hi Maseoud, I don’t know how to retrieve a BrickBreaker password. I believe when you are submitting a new high score you can just create a new username and password and you’ll be able to register the high score. It’s difficult for me to confirm because I no longer have access to the BrickBreaker leaderboard. Other people are having this problem too.
If you like, you can submit your score to the unofficial leaderboard.
Paul just sent me a screenshot of his game in progress. His score is currently 1,010,680. You can check it out on the unofficial leaderboard!
I have paused my game at 999,990 points and 483 lives because I heard that the game re-sets itself at 1,000,000 points. Now that I see otherwise, I guess I’ll carry on (at least until I go blind or crazy, whichever comes first).
Hey kbails, wow, I am serious impressed at your willpower not to push past 1,000,000 points! If you want, email me a screenshot of your score in progress (take the picture with a friend’s phone) and I’ll post it on the unofficial leaderboard.
i am at 175,000 and 75 lives.
Nice!
Currently at 156,830 with 48 lives. I lost a game to rebooting blackberry when I was in the 37500 (ish) range with 70 or so lives. I thought that the first time i broke through that it must have been a great score…14 million, wow, i don’t think i can last that long, great string, i will save it to my favorites and try to post on your un-official site when i get a little farther along.
Those are both winning scores, well done!
Hola!! Actualmente mi puntaje mas alto va en 54981 puntos !!! Y AÚN TENGO 24 VIDAS ASI QUE UEGO LES ESCIRBO PARA DEJARLES SABER EN CUANTO QUEDÓ!!!
My Spanish isn’t very good but thanks for commenting!
Hi Pierre, I too saw the so called high score of 2,121,701,232, by a player named Johanna, but suspect they hacked the site and added a false score as the number ends in 232…..no game can end in a number other than 0 because the scores are all in multiples of ten. the second hightse score is around 14,000,000 which does end in 0. I also cannot post a high score anymore, since I upgraded my blackberry, have eclipsed the 1,000,000 mark 6 times now, the last five times my phone either died, battery came out, or it chose to reset on its own. currently at 1,121,870 62nd time through with 289 lives, but my best prior to it resetting was 2,331,000 (give or take a little as I am not exactly sure what it was when it reset) with 878 lives and on the 129th time through. As I cant access the high score screen anymore, I have no idea where that stands.
Nice scores Mark!
I am on 116x(Level 13/34) with a score of 2,033,990 having 889 lives and till yesterday I was thinking that I would be almost in the top, if not in the top most position:-) LOL
Well done Somnath!
Hi, my brick breaker current high score is 4,51,000 with 131 lives I am in game.
Well done Amit!
my name is manoj an indian my brickBreaker high score is 135610
Nicely done Manoj!
It takes roughly one hour to get through the 34 levels. At roughly 17,000 points per round it would take 124,805 hours to get to 2,121,701,232 points or 5,200 days or 14 years assuming one did nothing but play brickbreaker 24 hours a day every day without stopping over this period of time. So my guess is Johanna somehow rigged the software to come up with that score. Also as a previous contributor said all scores end with a zero which is futher proof that she rigged the score.
I am at 5,253,530 with 1415 lives and frustrated that I cancot find a leader board to see where I stand. One of your contributors suggested a website on my blackbery but it did’nt work. Can you help?
Mike
Hi Mike it seems like the official BrickBreaker leaderboard isn’t working anymore. I invite you to submit your score to the unofficial leaderboard page instead.
Well I have to say, I thought I was nuts for playing this *&$# game so much. Over 6 million points? My God man! I am officially DONE with BrickBreaker. I’ve had different blackberries since 2003 through my company and grew addicted to this game, trying so hard to beat it. It would make me so angry, and I felt like it was actually cheating at times. At one point I became so frustrated with it that I looked for cheat codes simply because I wanted to “STICK IT” to this game once and for all. Didn’t find any that worked.
Eventually I stopped playing, never actually beating all the levels. Well, not too long ago I started playing again and somehow managed to get passed the 34th level twice. It was then that I realized that I could coast and continue to add points and lives becase the game became very easy after that. The first time I think I was up to 187,000 ish with like 20 lives and my game somehow got ended with no evidence of my high score. I was so mad, but I decided to play again knowing that if I got passed it twice again, I could dominate this game that I have grown to HATE. Well I did and got my score up to around 287,000 with 70 lives. Little did I know until I read some posts on this site that you lose your game if you turn off your blackberry. I had a google maps update and applied it, which required a restart of my blackberry. Oh well. I don’t care though. I probably would have played forever if this had not happened. Finally I am FREEEEE!! I beat that stupid game, and it only took me 8 friggin years to do it. So long BrickBreaker. On to the next addiction. 
Haha, congrats, and good luck with your next addiction!
I don’t understand how you lot can have such high scores when YOU CAN’T SAVE the game! You must be on it the whole time day and night or are you all using the old version when saving was an option?
Good question, you can’t save the game but you can pause it. If you are playing and you just press the red key to hang up the phone, it will pause the game and you can do other things on the phone. If you open BrickBreaker again you can resume the game. This means you can play the game over the course of days/weeks/months. But you can’t fully save a game to the database, which basically means if you ever reboot your phone (e.g. take the battery out), your progress will be lost.
Hi everyone…I’ve just set up an Unofficial BrickBreaker Leaderboard. If you are working on a high score and want to send me a screenshot, I’ll post it for you. Check it out: http://www.brickbreakerguide.com/unofficial-leaderboard/
whats the score of thenumber 2 in the ranks, so ican beat his ass… (cuz nr1 is fake..) score now is 302620 with 70lives and still rising.. (On bb torch 9800)
I tried to check the #2 score on the leaderboard and found that I’m no longer able to access the leaderboard (as other people have mentioned in these comments previously). So I would say, go for a nice round number!
v5.0.0.832, plate forme 6.3.0.31. i will blog here if u accept that i’m not english speaker… i usually speak french but i can go english a bit. Average is simple. when u rach level 1 look your level. just devide your score by the level u are on. For the best score, maybe we can tell Blackberry that we want 2 register scores whathever the OS is…
About my best score, i’m still workin on it… Last time i saw blackberry best score it was over 11,000,000. I will beat it lol. When i will b there, i’ll send u a pic. Happy 2 talk 2 someone who love this game..
Hi! I think the link for high scores is defitively no longer available. That message appear since a few months. So if you want to register your score or if your goal is to keep on playing until you reach a certain level, just forget it…
(
My score is 2,473,210 with 569 lives on level 136. What is special is the average witch is 18 138. Based on a long sequence, it is my best average ever. My best score would be much higher (maybe over 6,000,000) but my old Blackberry was falling down all the time
Last point, damaging a brick with a bomb give 10 points on my present Blackberry (9300).
Hi Sined, well done! I am not sure what my best average is, but that’s a good way to judge the best-of-the-best players. Question: what version of BlackBerry do you have? You probably know where to look but if not this link tells you how to determine your OS Version: http://www.online-tech-tips.com/computer-tips/how-to-determine-iphone-blackberry-os-version/. Earlier in the comments, nick l said maybe OS 6 no longer has a working high score link so I am curious if that’s in fact the problem. Also, I’m planning to create an unofficial high score page. If you’d like to be one of the first people to submit a score, please take a screenshot of your phone and email it to me (contact -at- brickbreakerguide.com). The easiest way to do this is just take a picture of your screen using someone else’s phone and email it from the other phone. Thanks!
Also I forgot to say, I just upgraded to os 6.0 and there doesn’t seem to be any ‘high score’ option in the brickbreaker menu. I think I remember submitting my high scores before I upgraded but I can’t remember for sure. I tried to go to plazmic.com but, oddly enough, it’s not formatted for mobile browsers. On a side note, the game runs much more smoothly on 6.0.
Interesting, maybe that’s why some people are having problems submitting their score. I am still on version 5.0 I think.
Lol @ ‘fortnight’… I just got 26k and I thought I had somethin. But ya wouldn’t it take an absurdly long time to get that many millions of points? I played for almost an hour altogether throguhout the day to get my 26k score. I wonder if the developers of this game envisioned people getting these kinds of scores.
Hi Nick, yeah, it would take an absurdly long time. By the way, judging by your score, you are getting pretty close to breaking through to a VERY big high score…if you can get past level 34 a second time you will be golden.
downloaded game off of samsung website still playing the same game score – 1322398000 lives – 650 level – 16791 i dont think the game will ever end
my missus has hit a score of 47934550 at the moment and 183 lives and has played the game on a samsung tocco lite she’s played for nearly a fortnight
Hey Mark, is that a BlackBerry device or another platform? I think it might be a slightly different version of BrickBreaker, just based on her score and that fact that she’s got that score in under 100 years!
score now is 79253870 and now has 414 lives she is still playing the game if your near west yorks uk come and have a look
currently have a score of 1,602,450 and 292 lives. A record for me and probably near the top. It has taken me about a month to reach this score. I can’t imagine losing 292 lives, so I will probably just quit or turn it over to someone.
Hi Steve, an impressive score! Once you’ve reached that point it’s all a matter of how high a score you want to rack up.
I think they need not have all scores listed as the same. some devices have a diffrent way to play the game or at least the scoreing is a little bit harder on a diffrent device. I’m at 387,450 right on a curve 8900, now I’ve tried to play on other devices and the game is not as easy as mine. So if they don’t list the games on the leader board according to devices then when you post at least let others know what device your using. Makes it a lot easier to know which device is being used and having more success!
It’s true that the game is a little different on every device.
Hi! I have a score of 201,354,950 I have had over 420 lives and have beat the game about 20 to 50 times….
I love the game because its addictive… It gets easy after you beat the game a few times!
Incredible!
I find that hard to believe! I have beaten the game 92 times and am at 1,602,490. So to reach 201 million would take years to accomplish.
I just hit a score of 6,000,000 with 2145 lives in level 345. Not sure how that ranks but would love to know and it has to be up there. I have been playing this one game continuously for 9 months!
WOW.
I currently have a score of 2,206,960 with 652 extra lives and am on 130x.
I’ll never run out of lives at this level. It now depends on how long I really feel like playing…lol.
Awesome!
im currently on 1169150 with 406 lives. Andy is on 205000 but did previously reach 1000000 and his phone reset.
Nice!!
Why because catching a capsule gives you 50 points
Shooting a brick with the gun gives you 50 points
Hitting a brick with the ball gives you 10
Shooting a brick with the laser gives you 10 points
Damaging a brick with a bomb 5 points
Exactly (though I think the bomb does 10 points of damage…I will have to check). Either way, it’s impossible to have a score ending in 2.
Pierre simply the 2,121,701,232 score can’t be real because it doesn’t end with a zero
Good point Tony!
I had reached a score of about 240,000 with 15 more lives when I took a break. However, whgen I returned to the game again, it went back to the start of a new game, i.e I could not continue the last game. This happened once previously when I had a score of about 86,000. Is there anyway to resume the last game?
Hi CK, unfortunately there’s no way to save a game in progress or return to the last game. If you close the BrickBreaker app or take the battery out of your phone, it’ll erase your current game and there’s no way to get it back.
I just finished my longest game ever and my final score was 1,251,370. I believe it said my ranking was 988 but I can’t pull it back up and, when I click on high scores it tells me that “This service is currently not available for your device”. Same thing happened when I tried to click on the link you provided. I have a Blackberry Bold and it is fairly new. I wish someone would publish the top 50 or 100 scores so we could see what we need to beat. I also do not belive the 2 billion point score. It would take way to much time and, the odds say your device would freeze or something during such a long game. My device has frozen while shooting lasers or just hitting the ball from a corner so I know from experience.
Hi Steve, that’s a great score! That is strange you can’t access the leaderboard — it seems like many people are having this problem of not being able to view the high score website. I’ve found that you can only view the high score Website from within the BlackBerry Browser (that is what opens by default for me when I access High Scores from within BrickBreaker). I did a quick check and the 50th score on the leaderboard at the moment is 4,374,710 points, which is no joke!
When I try to submit my high score, I hit the sprinkles button to try and bring up the submit high scores but it doesn’t come up. It just says help, new game, options, switch application, and close. I’d like to see where I rank. My score is 295,310. How come I can’t submit my high score?
Hi Aaron, sorry I’m not sure. When I bring up the menu I see:
And I believe, but can’t confirm for sure (maybe someone else listening in can) that when you have already submitted your high score, the “Send High Score” option is missing but the “High Scores” link is still there. I take it you do not see the “High Scores” link?
One more thing to check is whether you have a username and password set up. Go to the Options menu and see if anything is filled in under username and password. You might need to set these up before you can submit / view scores. Also, if you let me know your username, I’ll look up your ranking on the leaderboard.
When I try to access brickbreaker/menu/high scores, I get a window that says High Scores plazmic ‘This service is currently not available on your device’ – how do I get this service? My currentl score is 445,000+ and I have 120 lives. I just want to see where I am on the leader board. thx
Hi Vic, that is strange. When I go to BrickBreaker menu>high scores, the BlackBerry Browser launches and it starts loading a Webpage that shows the high scores. Perhaps there’s a restriction in place on your device either preventing you from launching the Blackberry browser or restricting that particular Webpage? Just a guess on my part.
Another thing you can try is opening your BlackBerry browser and going to the following link (note, this link doesn’t work in normal browsers, you can only access it from your BlackBerry browser):
http://blackberrycanbefun.plazmic.com/mss/leaderboard?game_id=1&lower_limit=10. This is the actual link that you are taken to when you visit BrickBreaker menu>high scores.
Also one other thing, as a heads up: you may have got 450,000+ on your game in progress, but you will not be able to record this high score on the leaderboard until you actually end your game, either by losing all your lives or purposefully ending your game in progress. This will record your score in the HISCORE section of BrickBreaker. Only then will you officially be able to submit that high score to the leaderboard.
I have the same issue that my device doesnt support the application. My score is 1.3 mil, 305 lives and level 62. I was listed as number #1300 about 8 months ago when I was at 700k and stopped playing. Started playing the same gane again and hit a million went back in and I dropped to the 15000 spot so stopped playing again. Just started again and now at 1.3 million, I cant see where I am on the score board. pretty sure my bb is about to die so I guess I will never know
