Highly Addictive, a great step up from the original!

Tetris DX is a great game, and improvement over Black and White. The new colors allow swirling effects that makes this game simply irresistable. Following the basic tetris format, the game gives you the same amount of challenge, but with new levels. It has memory for 4 players. The computer notes a players stratagy, and you can play aginst that player without him/her being there. Also, unlike the original, this game actually saves your score.. Try another new level. See how many lines you can clear under 3 minutes! No more waiting to get the rocket, each level under the "B" game gives you some kind of rocket(including the Statue of Liberty). Even Screen Savers!

As I am a grandma of 62 years old, I played my first game of tetris this month on my grandsons gameboy. I moved to Georgia, from New Jersey and on the trip down here, I played tetris from N.J. to GA. Because of that experience, I went out and bought a game boy and the tetris dx game. I am turning into a tetris junkie. I love the game. It is very challeging to try to beat everyone at this game. We all play the game in this household. Only complaint I have is I have to wait to see the fireworks go off. I go through 4 batteries a week. My next step is to buy another game so I can switch. This game is fun for a beginner. Thank's for your time.

Well, Tetrix has always been one of favorite games if not my favorite. So when I got a GameBoy color this was the first game I bought. One reason was because I loved the original Tetrix and Tetrix DX was in color so it should be even better. Then when I played it I thought to myself darn this game is very fun and extremely hard to put down. At first this game might seem a little hard if you haven't played a Tetrix game before, but if you have it is pretty easy.

This game isn't just the original Tetrix with color it has other features besides that. It has Marathon which is the original Tetrix, Ultra in which you have a certain time limit to finish, 40 Lines which you see how fast you can get 40 lines, and vs computer in which you go head to head with the computer. You can also play a 2 player mode with a link cable, an other game boy and Tetrix DX game.

The 2 player mode is just like the vs computer mode except you are playing a friend. This game also has three music tunes you can enjoy while playing any feature. And other thing about this game is it really shows off the GameBoy Color's colors, by the colors in the game and the screen savers that come up when you don't do anything at the menu screen. I originally bought this game thinking it would be good, but I bought a game that was great! So if you feel the need for a new game I suggest you buy a Tetrix game preferably Tetrix DX. Plus if money is a problem this game isn't that much even for a GameBoy Color game so don't make excuses buy the game!

Tetris DX is a very fun game! You will be addicted to it in no time! There are many different things you can do to change the game settings. For example, you can change the music. You can also change the level you are on yourself, although I wouldn't recommend doing it until after you have become a very good player. There also many game modes you can play in, like 40 Lines, on which you have to get 40 lines without your blocks hitting the top, Marathon, on which you just keep going and going and going until your blocks hit the top, or Ultra, where you see how good you can do, except you only have 3 minutes to do so. The computer also keeps track of your best records and displays them when you are choosing your level. Tetris DX is an absolutely terrific game! I would recommend it to anybody! You'll have a lot of fun playing it. Thank you for reading my review. I hope it helped.

Very addictive!

You will love Tetris DX! I had the Tetris Gold Collection from Spectrum Holobyte CD for Windows, and I didn't think I would like this one, but it hooked me! You can change the music, pause the game and it keeps 3 of your highest scores. Very addictive and enjoyable!

Great Tetris Game!

I have both this game AND Tetris Worlds for Game Boy Advance, And I love them both as much as the other. Tetris worlds my not have a Battery Back-up, but it more than makes up for that with the extremely fun game variations and the classic tetris Music.
Tetris DX DOES Have a battery, but it's just basic tetris. I'm able to score at least 400,000 points regularly, so every time I top out I have to put up with that annoying rocket launch sequence, wheras with Tetris Worlds, when you top out, you can start the next game right away without having to put up with annoying rocket sequences. the bottom line: went I want to play Classic Tetris, I play Tetris DX. when I want Enhanced graphics and effects and Nostalgic Music, I play Tetris Worlds

Absolutely addictive

I only get hold of the Game Boy after my 6 year old is tucked up in bed! For the first few nights this game led to some VERY late nights as I was unable to tear myself away from it: "Just one more go!" Then I dreamt about little funny-shaped blocks falling, falling.....So beware! Tetris and Colour Game Boy - a match made in heaven. Sure there are more sensible things to do with life but this is a lot of fun!

A great game, if you can find it.

Tetris DX is an excellent game, but unfortunately it has become extremely hard to find.

Now that I have a Game Boy Advance, I was happy to find a Tetris game to replace the hard-to-find Tetris DX. If you have a GBA and want a decent Tetris game, check out Tetris Worlds. While it isn't as pure to the form as Tetris DX, it is well worth the price for some Tetris action.

Total Addiction
