    The effects and music are great, but it's just Tetris. I like playing it but the lack of single player modes is sad. That adventure just has 5 levels then you have the Metamorphosis Level and that's it , this should be like 50 at least. There was a ???? in adventure mode so I thought something was gone me a new set of levels, but nope it is just the art and music.... very disappointing.

    Who would have thought that a 35-year-old game would pair so well with very mediocre music?

    As someone who regularly plays the original on the NES/SNES I have to say this was a huge disappointment. Game pieces don't turn like they normally do, so you have to reprogram your brain , L shapes in particular are annoying. The play-field is also too small making up 1/4th the original size. I also don't like that blocks don't lock in place easily. You'll find piece slide after youAs someone who regularly plays the original on the NES/SNES I have to say this was a huge disappointment.

I also don't like that blocks don't lock in place easily. You'll find piece slide after you "think" you've placed them. Also where is the 2-player gameplay? Yep, this is a solo adventure. The whole things feels like it was designed to be a projected background at a rave party, which is fine but honestly it gets annoying after awhile. As a casual game fine buy it, but if you're serious about Tetris just save your money and keep playing the NES/SNES version.… Expand

    It's still the same plain old tetris I've been playing since the mid-80s. VR adds crap flying around you while you play it, and they took away the classic tetris music, but the gameplay is still just plain old tetris. No multiplayer. No different modes. Not worth the full $40. I paid $20 and still feel a little ripped off.

    A euphoric, almost religious game, and one that will make you wonder what you've been doing playing other games.

    Tetris Effect is a magical experience that you really need to witness to believe. Featuring over thirty stages, unlockable content, and a wide range of challenges with their own leaderboards, it’s also the most complete Tetris experience to date. There’s endless replay value here for fans of the classic puzzle formula and virtual reality is the cherry on top.

    Tetris Effect reflects the classic puzzle game through a particle filled kaleidoscope, putting players into a mesmerizing trance with its unique presentation, alongside classic gameplay. Its price point might jolt you back to reality, though.
