TRAZ (Transformable Arcade Zone) is a block breaker game with multiple paddles and 64 levels. There is also a built-in level construction set.
Each level can have different set of paddles - sometimes one at the bottom and one at the top, sometimes one left and one at the bottom, sometimes three stacked-up etc. This gives each level a distinctly new gameplay.
There are power-ups (question-marks falling out of destroyed blocks), unbreakable blocks, monster generators and glass refractors that change the balls movement angle as it passes through.
After a level is cleared, the player must choose the next level by moving on a 8x8 grid of levels.
