Puzzle Express Review
Wooooonderful
You can buy it at RegNow for that price.
Cool idea, great twist with pictures (you can download your own photos, too), very cool music
None.
What a clever way to modify Tetris. It’s official, guys – Puzzle Express is very, very cool. I mean developers must have pool a lot of efforts into the game. Graphics is very simple and very clean (2D), which is very appropriate for this kind of game. The music is excellent – a sort of country-western theme complete with harmonica. Great.
Ok, the gameplay. Usually in Tetris pieces fall down. Not the case with Puzzle Express. In this game, the pieces are put on a conveyor belt. You pick them up, rotate with the right mouse button and place onto train cars. Every time a row is complete, it disappears and you start seeing a part of some picture.
There also are some bonuses, but these don’t really do much. Oh, and the design of pieces is quite a bit different from the original Tetris.
Also there are two game modes. One if Express and that one has a time limit (first – five minutes, than four minutes, etc.) The other mode is Scenic and it’s really, really cool.
No time limit and you get to pick your destination. Once you pass a level, you pick a place where you want to do. Chicago or New York, for example. And you’ll see the pictures for the city of destination. Puzzle Express is a great game, I tell you.
If you love Tetris this game is something you'd never expect. Also, it's a great family friendly game with no violence whatsoever.
