Everyone knows the age old game of Tetris. The bestselling video game whereby you have to flip and rotate blocks in order to complete challenges.
I have previously written a review on Tetris Dual, whereby you have to drop Tetrimino shapes displayed on the LCD screen by dropping them into the Matrix (play grid). Points are scored by placing a piece next to one of your own colour or completing a full row.
Tetris 3D
Well now we have the Tetris 3D which is a brainteaser puzzle. Again based on the same principle as the game you have to find a way to complete this puzzle. Normal rules don’t apply in this game as the Tetrimions can be flipped as well as rotated in order to complete the challenge.
This is a great one person challenge that will certainly keep little ones occupied for a while. It took me a decent amount of time to complete it and I’m 46 with, what I feel is, quite a good puzzle brain! Ages 6+ and retails at £12.99 from Amazon
Tetris Shake
Another member of the family is the fabulous Tetris Shake. A stacking, strategy game where you have to put all of your Tetriminos on top of each other before they come crashing down.
This is a great game for giggles and nerve, the girls sometimes couldn’t even place their pieces for fits of laughter. Needless to say more often than not it was me who lost, not sure if that was down to strategy or the fact the girls made it impossible for me to complete a game!
The first player to stack all of their Tetriminos wins. This is so much harder than you think considering you are racing against the shake. Suitable for 2 players age 6+ and retails at £19.99 from Amazon. (8/4/21 – priced at £7.01)
We were gifted these items for the purpose of inclusion in a gift guide. This review was not requested, we just love the games.
