Tetris Forever 

 

I am extremely thankful I had the money to purchase a copy of Tetris Forever on the PS5. Tetris Forever can also be found on Nintendo Switch, PC, and PS4. Did you enjoy the one shot live stream I did of Tetris Forever? That was such a hopping good time for everyone that was there live with me. I did not realize that Tetris Forever contained all of these older versions of Tetris. I did not know some of them even existed.

Tetris Forever celebrates forty years of Tetris. There are fact, and videos about Tetris in Tetris Forever. You better really like Tetris to want to play Tetris Forever. There is a cool Time Warp mode in Tetris Forever. We play a modern day Tetris and as we get certain special blocks removed we are brought back in time to play an older version of Tetris. We can also just go and play those older versions of Tetris.

There are some Japanese games in Tetris Forever that remind me of Othelo. There are also some Hatris games in Tetris Forever. The controls in Tetris Forever change depending on which older retro version of Tetris you are playing. There are manuals to the games, but some of them are in Japanese. I had no clue what to do in one of the games and the manual was zero help to me in Tetris Forever.

Graphically Tetris Forever ranges. There are some neat looking games within Tetris Forever. There are also some really annoying ones. In fact I noticed the blocks would not always line up like in the old Apple version of Tetris Forever. The DOS versions were interesting to me. The Famicom ones were also kind of fun to see. I will note the controls in the Famicom ones were difficult to adapt to.

What really hurts Tetris Forever is the bad language and alcohol references. Why was that even needed? I think Tetris is cool, I do not want it brought down into the gutter. The same goes for the story of Tetris. Some people act like a puzzle games is on par with anime in terms of story telling. I respectfully disagree. There is fun Tetris action and plenty of interesting facts about the past of this franchise.
