Off the Wall is a 1989 Atari 2600 game developed by Axlon and published by Atari Corporation. It is a clone of Breakout with an Oriental theme. Axlon was a game development studio owned by Atari founder Nolan Bushnell. Off the Wall was one of the last games released by Atari for the 2600. It contains a 16K ROM.

Unlike Breakout and Super Breakout, Off the Wall is controlled with a joystick and not the paddle controllers.
