Old school canon game report
TETRIS
By Steve 596





Tetris is a classic puzzle game that I have been playing since I was young, and I really like it. This game is very addictive and not getting bored, eventhough it doesn't have a very good graphic. The premise is that blocks of four different types are falling from the top of the screen. You have to place them and try to form complete horizontal lines, which are then eliminated. The blocks can be rotated any way. The more lines you make, the higher the level, which in turn means the blocks fall faster. You'll find it very hard to stay alive when you pass 150 lines. This game was created in 1984 for video game console, but now you can play Tetris on mobile phone, PDA or computer as well. Tetris is the most popular game ever as was said in the Electronic Gaming Monthly magazine "The greatest game at all time".

Game play

You will get blocks which made of four smaller blocks. You have to position them as they fall in order to make complete horizontal lines. If you leave too many gaps the blocks are getting higher and higher. When you touch to the top that means the game is over or that means you lose. The more lines you make at once, the more points you get. The highest number of lines you can make at is four lines; that is called a Tetris. If you want a block to fall faster, you can hold down until you hear the bump sound. You get a small bonus on your score for making a quick decision.

Challenge

This game is very challenging. At some point, you may find yourself in a situation where you're very close to losing. The challenge is to get from a very high point to a huge amount of emptiness. But first you have to think and make careful planning. I love how I got out of a sticky situation which was what made this game very challenging. The levels go on and on-again, infinite replay.

Overall

If you like puzzles game, you’ll like Tetris because this game is the greatest canon game which really addicting.
