Arkanoid: Revenge of Doh is an arcade game released by Taito in 1987 as a sequel to Arkanoid. The mysterious enemy known as DOH has returned to seek vengeance on the Vaus space vessel. The player must once again take control of the Vaus (paddle) and overcome many challenges to destroy DOH once and for all. Revenge of Doh sees the player battle through 34 rounds, taken from a total of 64.
Spectrum Cassette Game Gameplay
Revenge of Doh differs from its predecessor with the introduction of “Warp Gates”. Upon completion of a level or when the Break (“B”) pill is caught, two gates appear at the bottom of the play area, on either side. The player can choose to go through either one of the gates and the choice will affect which version of the next level is provided. The fire-button is only used when the Laser Cannons (“L”) or Catch (“C”) pill is caught.
The game has new power-ups and enemy types, and two new types of bricks. Notched silver bricks, like normal silver bricks, take several hits to destroy. However, once a short period of time has elapsed after destruction, they regenerate at full strength. These bricks do not need to be destroyed in order to complete a level. In addition, some bricks move left to right as long as their sides are not obstructed by other bricks.
On round 17, the player must defeat a giant brain as a mini-boss. After completing all 33 rounds, the player faces DOH in two forms as a final confrontation: its original, statue-like incarnation, then a creature with tentacles that break off and regenerate when struck.

Arkanoid – The Revenge Of Doh is the best Break Out game ever- it can’t be bettered (dangerous thing to say, Nick – Ed). No Spectrum software collection is complete without this game so get it (if you haven’t already!) – Crash Issue 89, Jun 1991
