    God this game is overrated, it's just tetris with music and some shiny visuals you won't probably look at because you will be looking at the blocks. I played Tetrinet in 1997 and this was far better for the multiplayer. Sounds like many people rating this game highly have not played much else or are way too much into Tetris. There are so many better games, I can't see myself playing thisGod this game is overrated, it's just tetris with music and some shiny visuals you won't probably look at because you will be looking at the blocks.

    It's absurd how media is giving so good notes just for the fact that have released on released on Switch.
    This only proves how poor is the library on the Switch.This game first ver was released on 2019. 3 years later , you hear it right, 3 friggin years later is finally getting a port to the Switch. This only demonstrates how terrible is the library management of Nintendo that is absurd

This only demonstrates how terrible is the library management of Nintendo that is absurd to give it a good score just to prove something? Menawhile they can say: We at Nintendo are giving our best efforts for you to have the best games. Absurd as it sounds. What a joke of a company for gaming's sake.

    Tetris with music, that's it. Nothing new at all except he price tag. Insane how overhyped this is. Yet another game flooded with fake ratings and reviews on meta. Disappointing that i can't trust this site anymore.

    I really do not like modern tetris. I bought this game, and it's fine, but what I have come to realize is that the positive reviews are because people are kind of babies now, and they don't like tetris to be challenging. When I do poorly in this game, it is usually because of the controls, not because of proper game design.

    The NES mode is fun, but it needs solo play.

    Original is better. This is just weird. I would score it higher if it was cheaper. It should be no more than 5 dollars

    When it peaks, all of Tetris Effect: Connected's separate parts meld together and your mind melts away. It's the most feel-good, fully featured and fun version of Tetris to date. Get your brain on Tetris and feel the bliss! [Issue #57 – January/February 2022, p. 23]

    The refined and perfect gameplay of this puzzle game together with the sensations conveyed by its music and visual effects make it a unique and highly recommended experience on Nintendo Switch.
