I'm trying to find out the name of an OLD Arcade Game ! We used to play it in the mall arcade back in, say 85' or around that time.

It has a strange name and it's very similar to this game:

I know it's a stretch but it's driving me NUTS !!

It was called, "Breakout".

Years later, Atari released another classic called, "Super Breakout".

I use to play it all the time when-ever my mother would give me one of her spare quarters. I was never good at it, but I loved to play it.

Breakout was one of Atari 2600's biggest hits.
I believe you can get all these classic arcade games for your PC. Just search with the words, "Arcade Classics" and you should be able to find it.

I think it was Breakout or Super Breakout for MAC and Arkanoid for PC!
