The Atari Times
KLAX on the Lynx is the type of game that you buy a system for. Not just is the game play solid, but the graphics and the sound effects back up an already addicting game and take it up to the next level. If you like games akin to Tetris (and who doesn't?), then this may be a worthwhile purchase for you.

IGN
This is an incredibly simple and totally addictive game, appealing to both the mind and the reflexes alike, that has made a perfect transition from the arcade. Between the friendly gameplay, elegant graphics, and stunning sound and music, Klax on the Lynx is highly recommended!

Atari HQ
Complementing the addicting play-action are absolutely top notch sights and sounds. The graphics are nearly identical to the arcade version and retains all of the charm and animation found in the original.

All Game Guide
If you have a Lynx and intend to use it, Klax should be at the core of your gaming library. If you enjoy puzzle games at all you'll be completely addicted to it, the way you were when you first came across Tetris. Even if you're just a casual player, it's hard not to be drawn into the deceptively simple gameplay.

ST Action
Klax is an absolutely super game, although not quite as addictive as Tetris, it is well worth having in your collection. Dare you put your little Lynx down?

Operation gelungen, Patient klaxt. Die brillante Geschicklichkeitsgrübelei "Klax" ist auch auf dem Lynx ein Prachtspiel.

I fell like Klax was Atari's answer to the Tengen Tetris debacle, problem is, I don't fell that this game can really stand up to the greatness of Tetris. It is however a very fun, frantic puzzle arcade port that any Lynx owner shouldn't be without.
