The third one has really difficult pieces like stairs and plus-shapes. The first one has regular Tetris blocks, and a few that only consists of two squares that are easy to place. You can also choose three various difficulty levels. The last one on stage five is quite funny! It’s a programmer with a beard, with a computer screen containing the same image in the same image in the same image and so forth XD
There’s a total of 5 difficulty stages, each stage has a different environment picture to the right and an increase in speed.
There’s also an increase in speed the higher the level you reach. It is actually kind of like a sequel to Tetris, made by the same creator! Alexey Pajitnov! :D Therefore it does deserve a place in the Tetris Collection ^_^ It’s not like Block Out, you just build on one layer, the only difference from regular Tetris is that you can build from 4 different directions of the board instead of just from above.Ģ. Welltris however got to have a place in the Tetris Collection for two reasons.ġ.
They are puzzle games, and they are perhaps INSPIRED by Tetris, but it’s not Tetris. If I would add these then I could basically add ANY puzzle game out there, like Tsuyoshi Shikari Shinasai which is one of my favorites, that works kind of like Puyo Puyo, but these games are NOT Tetris. Because I don’t want to have to include games like Block Out that is completely 3D and not called Tetris or Panel de Pon which have different shapes and functions than Tetris, you just switch places of blocks of the same color to try and match them and it builds up from below. Since I was quite new to the Atari ST and only had around 4 or 5 games for it I thought why not! So I picked it up from eBay :) I wasn’t quite sure whether or not to include it in my Tetris Collection since it’s not called “Tetris”, and it’s not the typical 2D-type falling blocks that Tetris is all about. I’ve been collecting Tetris games for a while now, and I recently stumbled upon this game called Welltris on Atari ST. People seemed to like it, but there were also a lot of visitors that asked me where it was. My cabinet had been hidden behind a roll-up behind the scene where they hosted the competitions, which was a shame… but people who looked found it anyway :) For those that missed it, this is what it looked like: So this year I was also asked to host an exhibit of my Castlevania collection, so I was there an hour earlier to set it up. Nintendo and Sega I can find at all the other retro game conventions in Sweden anyway. There have been more newer games lately compared to the first couple of years that I started attending, I hope they don’t take over though, because I love that there’s a place I can go to find these old obscure computers and consoles! I mainly focus on old cartridges and cassettes when I’m at Retro Gathering.
#Welltris for mac ps2
Last Friday I drove up to Västerås to attend Retro Gathering on Saturday, my favorite Retro Game convention in Sweden ^_^ Retrospelsmässan is also really nice, but as a retro game buyer there’s just more variation at Retro Gathering :) You can find everything from vintage computers, Atari and Commodore to newer PS2 and 3DS games.
