You've now got me curious about Tetris Effect, especially if it's available on Switch which seems like a more natural home for it. I will take a look, thanks for the recommendation
Beautiful tribute to a beautiful game. I also remember thinking I was good at Tetris before online leaderboards. It was really hammered in when the Facebook game Tetris Battle took off in my high school. Nothing says “you suck at Tetris” like being demolished by Michael Tamkee during free period.
Thanks for the comment mate. I’m not a big fan of online leaderboards, doesn’t feel good getting so brutally ranked. Nicer to be a legend in your own mind. I haven’t played 2 player, versus-style Tetris, but that sounds humbling as well.
I first tried Tetris Effect months ago and gave up fast. Picked it up again last week and now I’m hooked. I’m still pretty average, but having fun. Only downside is the blocks keep tumbling through my head when I try to sleep.
Thanks for the comment mate. Yeah it's one of those games where the difficulty jumps around a little and it requires greater player commitment. I got a bit frustrated by getting held on one level for a few gaming sessions. I'm average too, was only good enough to just pass the levels and nothing more. Great take on a retro classic.
Cheers. Yeah it’s a great game. Probably a bit of a slow burner at first, like other Tetris games, but once you get that old flow going again it’s super cool.

Great post. I've wanted to buy Tetris Effect for the last few years. Need to get on that!
