Tetris Worlds continues that streak, bringing their distinct brand of simple, yet addictive gameplay to the current generation of systems. Small shapes called Tetraminoes fall from the top of the screen to the bottom and you must rotate them and fit them together to complete lines. The game features six different variations of the classic Tetris, multiplayer mode for up to four players, and six different worlds. Sound easy? Once you start, you can't stop. Expand

  1. Its gameplay is solid while it still holds true to the original Tetris concept and is addictively fun.

    Promises a solid foundation of endless fun. [Sept 2002, p.164]
  3. A total disappointment, as it does not live up to its prestigious heritage that other Tetris games had.
  4. 46
    I don't think I've ever been this unimpressed by a Tetris game in my entire life.
  5. What is there that's new could be passed on, and the different options, excluding hold, create an all too easy Tetris. There are other Tetrises out there that do it better.
  6. Even the most hardcore Tetris fans will be upset with the sloppy multiplayer and arcade modes and the lack of meaningful new gameplay.
  7. Unfortunately, Tetris Worlds also introduces one particular change to the gameplay that renders the classic game all but unplayable.

    Good 4 player game, but there is no mode just to play. Instead, you must race to complete 5, 10, 15 ect rows.

I try my best to love this game because it’s the only Tetris game for the gamecube but it’s difficult to love this game. Sadly no new games are made else I would’ve bought a new Tetris game for the GameCube Expand

    How on earth did THQ manage to ruin Tetris? All they needed to do is include the basic game with many options and gameplay types, and people How on earth did THQ manage to ruin Tetris? All they needed to do is include the basic game with many options and gameplay types, and people will be happy. Instead they change a key aspect of the gameplay, and basically screw the entire game up. I feel almost generous in rating this a 1. Expand
