Hit Ball is a battle-arena arcade game that requires the player to use precise direct and angled shots and brick-breaking action to win. The player must carefully plan their moves to attempt to beat back wave after wave of enemies until they meet maximum wave requirements. When they win, they receive coins and emeralds and unlock new skills, upgrades and levels.
A magic user avatar faces off against soldiers, monsters and bosses on a grass checkerboard battlefield. The player directs this character to target enemies and shoot magic balls that reduce enemy health points.
The game features turn-based play, which means the player can't afford to make too many mistakes. When they perform well during a wave attack, they win potions that fill an upper-left bank as points and green plus signs that rejuvenate the character.
Hit Ball helps the player defeat their enemies with slot-machine-style action that provides new skills and upgrades. At random intervals, the battle pauses, and three vertical windows appear, offering Common, Epic, Rare and Legendary options.
For example, the player might select an option to boost normal or special ball damage. They might select a backstab ball that deals more damage from behind or a rocket ball that directs rockets at the weakest enemy. The player pays for access with their potions or ad views. They can also refresh the offerings to try something different.
Skills and upgrades help the player address some of the hardest obstacles of the game. For example, some enemies hide behind ice shields. Bosses typically have tens of thousands of health points.
