Tetris‪®‬ 4+

I don’t have access to in-app purchases, so I can’t really do anything with MyVIP. And I think MyVIP stuffs are the only thing players can spend in-game currency on. So that means that there’s nothing I can do with in-game currency. And boosters could fix that problem, let me explain this idea. Maybe there could be an in-game shop where we could buy these boosters. My booster ideas are the next choice booster, the empty square filler booster, and the hold box booster. The next choice booster would allow you to choose what tetrimino you’ll get for the next 3 turns (by tapping on the next box). The empty square filler booster would make it so that for the next 5 turns, pieces that are on top of an empty square will fall down to fill that empty square. The hold box booster would do different things depending on what type of game you’re playing. In a level, it would give you a hold box for the next 5 turns and make you use the piece in the hold box when it runs out. In a Tetris marathon, it would give the hold box an extra space for the next 10 turns, let you choose which piece to switch to when you swipe up, and let you choose which of the pieces in the hold box to use when the boost runs out. I don’t know what price you should make these, but you should make them use the game’s regular currency. And these could be OP, so any of them are, you could make them expensive.

The basics are great. It does function like any Tetris game. But there are some problems. 1. What is the point of having something called offline mode when it tries to connect to the internet every 20 sec or so and gives up a window with a retry button (and nothing else). Seriously it doesn’t even pause the game when that pops up. 2. Pause function. It does work but for like 5 frisking frames after that you can’t do anything. Very helpful when that block almost landed cuz u were on lvl 10, you hit pause because you sneezed, hit continue and that block will stay where it is (regardless what you do). Why can’t you add a countdown like the website? 3. Royale mode. Concept? Great idea. Outcome? P2W or pros only. Possible suggestions include: Have a garbage limiter. I played this mode twice and both times I died with over half of the board being grey. Other options include having a league system to avoid players with a marathon score of 20k being with those that have 200k. I hate it when that pro is attacking me and of all peeps it has to be a pro. Or just remove both the garbage and power up things.

Growing up, I really loved playing Tetris with my friends on Facebook. It was super enjoyable, so when I saw this game for mobile, the fun I had with it excited me so much that I downloaded this game and tried it (old times’ sakes). I understand the hype of bring something new into it, but this is just not the Tetris that I knew. What’s with all these challenges forced onto you to play the game? Like meeting the goal just stops the game altogether, there’s no sense of satisfaction when you bring down the blocks, some levels would have blocks building up automatically at the start, etc. It would be great if they could just put all these new things in a separate category within the game, and give an option for the very classic mode where there are no “moves” limit, no “challenges”, no auto add-on stuff, just classic endless game. What a bummer. Deleted the app after playing it for a while, bored me by the end. Such great memories associated with this game, but now it’s all just meh. Wish the developer had a sense of nostalgia.
