best puzzle game ever made

Personally, I am not one to play puzzle games, but this puzzle game can't be exactly defined as a normal puzzle game, it's fast, there are enemies, different levels with different ways of playing, multiple 1 Player modes, multiplayer modes, and ending bosses. I don't know about the rest of you, but this game screams action game. This game was created by the same game designer as the mario smash bros. games, so you know it's gonna make a hit. Another great thing about the game is the soundtrack, every planet has it's own theme song and sound effects. Also, the game has a ton of replay value, there are different endings that depend on you're score, path, and ability to complete missions in one mode, and there are a ton of unlockables, like planets you can use in the main game as in the multiplayer, and the soundtrack from the planets that you can listen to in the extras section. I seriously reccomend this game to puzzle fanatics and any other gamer out there.

Terrific...a must-have!

This game...wow, what can I say? This is the best game I have for the DS, one that I find myself going back to over, and over, and over again. The premise is simple...combine like-colored "meteos" in an attempt to launch them into space, should the planet's gravity permit it. It's a creative, fun variation on Tetris, and offers a ton of unlockables, several different modes, and a multiplayer option that is incredibly intense and enjoyable. The graphics are great, with bright, vibrant colors, and the music, believe it or not, is actually quite good, with different tunes for each planet. In short, a great puzzler, perhaps the best game out there for DS right now...get yours today!

Meteos is a pretty cool game, overall. The gameplay is unlike any other puzzle game, where the focus is not so much on eliminating individual pieces so much as quickly eliminating large groups. Meteos manages to be very fast paced, but at the same time not stressful or frustrating.

Another cool feature is that the different characters (planets) are vastly unique. Each planet has it's own sound set, music, physics, and semi-unique graphic set*. It's like playing 20+ different versions of the same game.

*Most planets share a graphic set with one or two other planets. For example, the two electric-themed planets share the same graphic set.

TOTALLY addictive---incredibly fun!

This game is very hard to describe when trying to make it sound as good as it is. Many people might say it's Tetris like, which it is to a SMALL extent, but it's far more. The basics of the game is trying to line up 3 falling blocks of the same color---when you do, they fly up into the sky and blast enemies. There is a little bit of a story line, but mainly, you are just trying to line up those blocks! The fun comes in that there are many different playing field to do this with, and each is a little different---different gravity, different strategies that work best, different kinds of blocks. And wildly different music---I am not someone that usually is that into music in video games, but this music is GREAT---it ranges from a country twang to a outer space sound to almost classical, and it really gets you into a groove. The other cool thing is that any block you manage to shoot into space gets added to your store of blocks, which you use to unlock more planets, and to unlock special kinds of blocks that do things like clear the board. You can play multi-player against the computer, but I so longed to try this in real multi-player mode I actually broke down and bought a second DS. I think I'm going to buy a second copy of the game, too, so I can use all the multi-player options (with one copy, you can play a limited version two player) This is the kind of game that makes you want to keep playing just a little more, to try to get a new planet, to try to make a new goal, just to see what the next area sounds and looks like...a TERRIFIC game!

awsome

Pros:
-The music is very impressive. Each of the 30 or so planets have different music.-10/10
-The graphics are very clean and good looking.-10/10
-Multi-player can be multi-card or single card play, I had so much fun playing with my cousin!-10/10
-The control is the best I have seen for a puzzle game (yes, better than polarium. In fact, polarium was a huge bust compared to meteos. If you are deciding on which games to get, completely rule polarium out.) Anyway, control gets a 10.
-Replay is very good. It is not really repettitive, unless you do the same planet over and over and over again. Then the music starts to sorta get to you, but other than that, this game is one I play very very often, so if you beat games quickly, you will be ok. 9/10
-The difficulty can be changed, 1 being the most easy, and 5 being the hardest. (like you needed to know that,) Starting out can be a little difficult until you get how the game works. Yes, I do recomend the tutorial.-10/10
-did I mention how great the music is? Well, the music is the greatest reward in the game. I think that the music is the best motive to do cool combos. Well the music is superb.

Well. I guess I got everything unless you count those people who put stuff like "gliches" in there review. (Which meteos have none that I can see.)
Yah.

Meteos!

this game is really cool but the adventure is way to short. even 5 star mode is easy but the really fun part of the game is multiplayer that is what made me get the game. buy this game if you have cool friends with nintendo ds and metoes buy it but dont get it if you are a nerd that has no friends so over all BUY THIS GAME

BEST DS GAME OUT THERE!

This game is so good that I just had to write a review! It is by far the BEST DS GAME OUT THERE! Meteos is an intense puzzler that's fun and easy to learn. Nice clean graphics, cool-quirky music, and tons of unlockables make this game a must have. But my favorite is the wireless mutliplayer! Up to 4 people can play with only one Meteos game! And if all players have their own copy you can each choose your favorite planet to battle it out! If you have a Nintendo DS get this game!
