How it feels

a fast-paced cascade of colorful blocks with explosive chain reactions that demand quick pattern-matching and reflexes.

What players say

A Tetris variant where blocks clear only when a detonator of the same color is used. Players say it is more strategic than Tetris, with a good learning curve, but note that multiplayer is local-only with no AI support. A scoring bug turns scores above 2 billion negative and is unfixed after years.
