Probably the best Tetris sequel

Tetris became an instant classic when it was packaged with the Game Boy in 1989. But the most interesting thing about the game becoming so successful is the fact that it spawned so many sequels - each of which was unique in its own way. One of these sequels was Tetris Plus, in which the objective of the game was to save a professor from being smashed by a spiked ceiling, rather than scoring lines like in traditional Tetris games. How does this change of pace work out for the series? Read on and see.
PROS:
-The graphics here are VERY good for a classic Game Boy game.
-The game has Super Game Boy color enhancements, which will make it that much more fun if you choose to play it using that accessory.
-In addition to the new "rescue the professor" mode which is the main attraction of the game, there is the classic Tetris mode you should know and love.
-Like in most Tetris titles, there's a two-player Game Link mode (WELL worth checking out if both you and a friend own the game.)
CONS:
-The music, while very good, isn't nearly as catchy as the classical Russian music featured in the original Game Boy game.
OVERALL:
Overall this is a fine addition to the Tetris library. If you're a fan of puzzle games, then Tetris Plus is well worth checking out. Sure, it never got the recognition and popularity that the original did, but it's still excellent. Don't pass it by if you're a Game Boy owner.

I am not a game player normally, but I love this. This is the game that had me buying a game boy.
With the different levels and the puzzle, it is the perfect game for an airplane ride.
I've played every version of Tetris I can find and this is the best, short of the original PC version.
Huge Tetris Fan

This is a great game to add to your collection, if you're a big Tetris fan, but too bad this game isn't in color.
