Overview:
Personally, I think it's Tetris on acid. It's a completely beautiful block elimination game. Stack the pieces on each other so that at least three of the same color connect horizontally, vertically, or diagonally and BOOM! they disappear. Betcha didn't see that coming. But wait! There's more! Change the game pieces to what you like: jewels, Grecian blocks, card suits plus a star, dice, or fruit. Plus, the music is cool. It's very classical and mesmerizing, and when you eliminate pieces the sound effects are cool, like glass magically breaking.
Directions:
Set them up and watch them fall. Easy- four different pieces, Normal- five, and Hard- six. Choose whichever game pieces you prefer, then line up matching pieces. You can only change the order of the pieces, not the shape or axis. I guess that's why they call it "Columns." Whenever you get at least three in a row they vanish. The higher the level number, the faster they fall, until it becomes insane. It is possible to get more than three in a row and set up combos so that as pieces vanish others fill the void and match with existing pieces.
In Flash mode, it will say "HIGH" with a number next to it. This tells you how many layers of pieces there will be. Choose from 2-9. The object in flash mode is to get to a particular piece that will be flashing at you and eliminate it. It does not keep a point score and instead keeps track of the amount of time it takes for you to eliminate that piece.
Play nice! If you choose two players then you have to take turns. No really. Every other piece is yours, on the same screen, and your friend places the rest. You must work together. In versus, on the other hand, destroy them! Make your friends cry over their inferiority as you win two out of three games. At least, that's what I would do. |
