ROTETRA is Tetris where the blocks fall from four different sides at once and lord almighty I don't have the brainspace to be good at it, but it sure is fun
Look, I'm pretty reasonable at Tetris. I'm not one of those grand masters or anything, but I can both have fun and get a score that would at least make my hypothetical nephew impressed (assuming he also wouldn't be in the Roblox mines). Sometimes, though, a take on the beautiful block game rocks up that makes me question any such skills I may have. Today, that is ROTERA, a block stacking game in…
Tetris, a classic block-stacking game, has been given a new twist with ROTETRA. In this version, tetronimos fall from not one, but four different sides simultaneously, making it both easier and harder than the original game. At first, everything seems manageable, with the usual random tetronimos falling down from the top, allowing for spinning, faster movement, or instant dropping.
As the game progresses, blocks start falling from another side, requiring constant attention and quick thinking to keep up with the falling pieces. The developer, Michael Kamm, has added a few gameplay modes, including cross, where you start with four sides falling at once, and puzzle, featuring handcrafted challenges. Despite the seemingly challenging nature, Kamm assures that the game remains engaging and fun. To try your hand at ROTETRA, you can check out the demo or wishlist it on Steam.
