A solid tetris variation, I like guiding the little guy. Excellent music too.

im down bad for the tetris plus assistant lady

as we head backwards into the past, i'm increasingly taken with how tetris plus and its sequel really nailed the "tetris, but" genre. color matching stackers are exploding in creativity, but the closed design of tetris hasn't lead to a longevity of tetris-likes. we'll discuss that phenomenon later once we get to the "tetris-like" boom of the late 90s and early 80s. but this half-decade hasn't brought us a lot of them -- the closest might be Cleopatra Fortune, honestly. (TGM is doing its own thing.) the Tetris Plus puzzle mode is genuinely brilliant. i'd be repeating my Tetris Plus 2 review to say more, so in short: pleasant, meaningfully distinct, very cute, rng-game-as-in-party-mode not rng-game-as-in-unfair, shame about the grave robbing but we will entomb them for their sins

sometimes i want the professor to die

piss poor tetris. for shame

The rotation system feels clunky and the puzzle mode would benefit from modern mechanics like hold and better L J and T spin support. More often than not you might find yourself grinding pieces at the top of the screen to get the one you want. The levels are interesting though and it has some charm that is missing from most other tetris games. Personally, I prefer the Gameboy version because the rotation system feels a little better than on PS1.
