Public Opinion
Overall Rating: 8.9
  • 9Tetris clone? Look no further, this one has everything. Responsive control and clean sound. You get a nice soft click instead of an annoying 'clack' I expect from other tetris clones. Great music selection, too. The only down side (?) is too many menus and options. Just take me to the game!
  • 8Well done!Graphics(80%),sounds(85%),fun(85%) and many supproted languages. I just didn't like that some options weren't avaibale right now and that the game doesn't save your highscores.
  • 8Amazingly configurable. Great audio and visuals. Too bad it seems to have been abandoned without first implementing the crucial highscores feature.
