★★★★★ (iTMS)

For the past 20 years we’ve been playing Tetris, watching line after line fade away and the points rack up. Trism is that game but for a new generation of players.

Trism a simple game with extreme depth. Once you master tilting the iPhone to produce combinations in-game, the points and the addiction will start to grow. No puzzle game has taken advantage of the accelerometer quite like Trism. The game has the perfect learning curve. It allows the player to play openly with very little chance of losing at first, but soon the more challenging pieces like locks and bombs come in. Locks prevent a row or diagonal from moving and bombs must be eliminated within a specified amount of turns. Figuring out how to diffuse these potentially game-ending situations is where Trism’s difficulty picks up.

With three different and all equally challenging game modes, Trism will provide hours and hours of fun. You can quit anytime and come back to exactly where you left off. Trism also has an achievement system for those looking for an even bigger challenge from the already difficult game.

Just as every kid in the 90’s had a Tetris cartridge for their Game Boy, everyone should have Trism for their iPhone. Get this now! ~~Zack Shapiro
