All 32 walls, drawn from their 160 bytes each at $8000-$93FF, and round 33, Doh.

01 · Rounds 1-32

Every wall

Each picture is drawn from the round's bytes with a port of the game's wall routine (draw_wall, $F40E, and draw_playfield_background, $F552): the tile set and colour of the round, the brick characters, and the shading each brick casts below and to its right. The numbers under each give the bricks to clear and the hits a silver brick takes in that round.

02 · Round 33

Doh

Round 33: Doh

Round 33 has no brick map. It copies a screen of Doh's characters from $7B90 and swaps in its own character set (doh_setup, $9C59). Screenshot from the emulator.
