Game InformerThere is no battery backup to save with, and $40 is pretty steep for another version of Tetris. [January 2002, p.98]
-
The original Game Boy Tetris features superior control and is more fun in general than this release will ever be.
-
Tetris Worlds does what countless iterations of the game haven't managed to do in the past--it actually breaks Tetris.
-
A lackluster version of the game.
-
One of the best puzzle games ever made.
-
But what Blue Planet did was to add elements of animation to the backgrounds, which are at once beautiful to look at and extremely distracting.
-
Tetris fanatics (and those still new to the idea) should grab a copy of the original 8-bit rendition. Sure, it won't take advantage of the GBA's advanced capabilities...but then again, neither does Tetris Worlds.

Nintendo PowerNew variations make Tetris Worls a world of fun. [Nov 2001, p.148]
-
Pocket GamesGreat multiplayer support gives it a long lifespan, though little ingenuity is here. [Winter 2001, p.52]
-
But once you get past the amazing new backgrounds, funky tunes and endless different game options, the best thing on this cart is just the basic Tetris game, played the same as its always been.
