Recreation of the classic block-building game

Tetris has to be one of the most popular games of all time and it’s no surprise that there are so many clones like ClickTris around. The game recreates the magic of Tetris and plays virtually exactly the same as the version we know and love.

The only slight difference is that ClickTris adds a new block shape, in the form of a cross, which adds a little bit more difficulty to the challenge.

Unfortunately the packaging that the game is wrapped in is rather weak. The photo backgrounds are dull and uninspiring, the blocks themselves look very strange, the sound effects are minimal and the music is noteable by its absence.

While you can customize the game board to your liking, the various themes are all pretty hideous. Although the presentation is poor the game itself is still a winner and it’s testament to ClickTris’ longevity that it took me four hours to write this short review!

ClickTris is a classical Tetris game. During all the game many pieces fall from the top of the window. A piece falls until it lands on another piece or the bottom of the window.

When pieces form a horizontal line, this line erases and all the pieces above fall down. You earn 10 points for every vanished line and an extra 10 points if you vanish more lines.
