This game fucking sucks but at least the idea isn’t awful, I feel like someone could make that work and honestly there’s probably some games that plays like 3-D Tetris in the massive realm of Tetris clones. Thinking about it, Mahjong Cub3D is the first one that comes to mind but it’s not really the same thing, but a 3D Tetris could be executed the same way.
But what makes 3D Tetris so damn awful other than being on a Virtual Boy? The controls sucks, it feels really weird to see this cubic sphere that screams “Rotate me around with your joystick!” But then you realise it’s a virtual boy game and you don’t get to have one of these so you just press buttons a random, praying that it will somehow move the camera in your desired angle but even the devs knew it was dogshit so they let you see at all times the 5 floors of the cube on the side and it’s just so much more practical to use this to place blocks rather than the Star Fox-ass 3D.
The goal of the game is simple, try to fill 3 layers of blocks while letting enough space for a vertical 3x1 just like you would on Tetris 2D but this time it’s in 3D bitch, so it makes you wonder “Why am I dealing with bullshit like this when I can just play normal 2D Tetris” and I’m not sure either because Vtetris is literally just classic Tetris but on virtual boy so you might as well play that.
The game do offers some variety, slightly more than the average Tetris game from the 90s. You get a classic mode which is about obtaining a high score and it’s easy as hell, the only difficulty comes from not being bored.
The puzzle mode which gives you a set of tiles to drop and create some sort of small 3D structure and I’m sorry if I make this sounds cooler than it looks it’s just try over and over until you get the order right, in other words it’s bad.
And the last game mode is just the first one except you can’t place a block in the middle tile of the first layer, fun.
Yeah it’s just another gimmick fest for the Virtual Boy forcing the stupid 3D.
