    A unique and genuinely fun puzzle game with some decidedly rough edges, BLOK DROP U is a brief but engaging experience that will appeal to indie-lovers and puzzle fans in spite of its flaws — and it's easier to forgive those flaws when it costs less than a latte.

    Blok Drop U is a fun, addictive puzzler at a bargain price that is no nonsense in its gameplay and presentation. It’s short and simple, and is enjoyable for what it is. It’s not lengthy, but it isn’t meant to keep gamers at bay for hours at end.

    Short, but never quite sweet, Wii U's first budget game does exactly what you'd expect, good and bad. [May 2014, p.91]

    Puzzle games need to be easy to learn and difficult to master but Blok Drop U doesn't leave much space for that, as its short amount of levels and lack of a scoring system don't leave much room for the players to appreciate it. While its gameplay mechanics and physics are well implemented, there's still a lot that Blok Drop U needs to be more of an acceptable piece of gaming.

Sure, if you stay at it, you can beat it in under an hour, and its interface isn't exactly the best in the world, not to mention, you have to start all over again if you shut the game off, but for a $2.00 game, it's okay. Not to mention, the developer is still supporting the game, releasing patches and more levels. I think that this could be a stepping stone toward bigger and better games in the future for RCMADIAX. I enjoyed it.… Full Review »

I shouldn't have a problem with this game, yet I do. The game is extremely bland and boring, all the game contains is broken unimaginative puzzles. I could have enjoyed this game if it stayed a flash game. I say this because Block Drop U's quality is horrendously sloppy, so much that it deserves to be on Newgrounds. Plus, the fact that there are better flash games than this, that are free by the way, make Block Drop U a waste of time.… Full Review »

Blok Drop U is about a block which starts at the top of the screen. Then you have other blocks underneath it which you have to get rid of in order to reach your red block to safety.

    I think the reason why I enjoyed this game so much is because it was so different. I was passing the stylus between my brother and I frantically trying to solve the puzzles.

    Now the only down side to the game is that it is far too short but for £1.50 you cannot grumble. It is definitely worth the money.

    I also heard that the developer is going to add an extra 50 levels which I am highly anticipating. Hopefully the developer will make a Blok Drop U 2 on Wii U one day as the game really deserves a sequel with more content and replay value.    … Full Review »
