“Simple remake of the classic Tetris puzzler”

by Nick Mead

If you liked Tetris then you'll probably enjoy LinkLines which is a classic remake of the Tetris arcade puzzle game.

The aim of LinkLines is simple - link five balls of the same colour to form a line in any direction. The ultimate objective of LinkLines is to stop lines on the board from filling up too quickly otherwise you've failed. The graphics in LinkLines are nothing special but it's the playability that keeps you hooked for a while. At first, it seems an impossible task to move and link blocks in LinkLines but as you get used to it, it becomes quite fun.

There's nothing fancy about LinkLines - no bonuses or obstacles to avoid but there are different levels which mainly differ in the awkwardness of sticking them together. The time it gives you to fit the blocks is very generous however and makes the game a little bit too easy in general. If there was some way of speeding them up, it would give the game's playability much more longevity.

Easy to play and challenging for a while, LinkLines will provide a certain level of fun although it's appeal may wear off a bit too quickly.
