Tetris® Forever

Tetris Battle Gaiden is the most lovely game out of all Tetris games.

This is more of an interactive documentary than a fully fledged game, but as long as you know that going into it, there's a lot to like here. For one, Henk Rogers carried a camcorder with him everywhere he went in the 80s and 90s, so it's not just interview footage, but his own video footage from visiting Moscow, CES, Japan. It's amazing that he filmed it all and it has been preserved. Also, this is the first time I've encountered the original Tetris from the Elektronika 60 in playable form, and it's cool as hell to see just how fully formed the game was in its first incarnation, even though it looks like a prototype. Yes, it's very disappointing that licensing prevented them from including the NES and Game Boy versions, and I'm also disappointed it doesn't include the Tetris versions made by Tengen and Sega. On the other hand, those already exist elsewhere, but from an archivist standpoint, having well-emulated versions of older versions from the 80s (MS-DOS, Apple II, etc.) for preservation purposes is definitely fun. If you just want to play Tetris, buy Tetris Effect. If you want a thorough oral history from the two most important people involved (the creator, Alexi, and the man responsible for getting it on Nintendo, Henk) with some lesser known versions, this is worth your time, although I can't recommend it at full price. Casual players will get 4-5 hours out of it, but if you really want to dig in, the achievements will keep you busy and there's a brand-new mode unique to this release (Tetris Time Warp) which cycles through the various releases.

buena compra

German: Das Spiel erscheint mir wie eine Katastrophe. Vermutlich bin ich einfach zu blöd für diese geniale Menüführung, bei der es schon zur Herausforderung wird, überhaupt das Spiel zu beenden. Und bei den Gameboy-Varianten suche ich den originalen Soundtrack vergeblich – soweit ich es sehe, gibt es diesen wohl nur in der modernen Variante in überarbeiteter Form. Also: Spielt es oder lasst es. Ich bin raus. English: This game appears to be a complete disaster to me. Maybe I am simply too stupid for this brilliant menu design, where just managing to actually exit the game already feels like a challenge. And when it comes to the Game Boy versions, I searched in vain for the original soundtrack — as far as I can tell, it only exists in the modern version in an updated form. So: Play it or leave it. I'm out.

Buenisima, la mera de contar la historia, es muy buena. La estoy subiendo a mi canal, en el momento de la reseña, me falta el ultimo capitulo, que creo, que me identificare mas con el, aun que, el C4, ya me identifique mas.

Un documental jugable. Si te gustó la pelicula te encantará este producto. Hay amor por tetris.
