    While it most likely is worth a shot for puzzle fans, there is little here for other players. Some of the games feel like they drag on too long, which is a weird feeling in such a game.

    Only when you enter the timed mode do you feel that white-knuckled intensity reminiscent when your Tetris screen was filled with blocks.

    A fantastic game that becomes a lot deeper than it first seems once you start learning some of the advanced techniques. A perfect fit for the Xbox Live Arcade.
