Description official descriptions

Unlike the original Tetris, Tetris 2 has you clearing the field of blocks in a different way. Each play field starts with different colored dots (in this case black, gray and white), with one of each color flashing. The blocks are made up of the same three colors, and by matching blocks of the same color over the top or to the side of the dot will clear the dot and those blocks from the screen. If you clear a flashing dot, all the corresponding dots of the same color will be cleared. To complete the round just clear the dots, not the blocks themselves.

A new challenge for Tetris masters....

The Good
This game is a lot different from the original. Instead of trying to complete rows you are trying to make a series of 3 or more of the same color. The objective of the game is to eradicate the diamond blocks randomly placed before the game begins. When the game starts you have about a 1/2 dozen of blocks towards the bottom half of the screen all of them have a diamond within them. They are different colors and in two player both screens are symmetric. It is basically a challenging puzzle game. In two player each side is like a fish bowl. First person to destroy the diamond blocks wins a fish. Literally.. A fish drops into your tank. Collect the most fish and you win.

The Bad
I thought it would have been nice if the original Tetris format was the main outline. It would have been nice to play some old school Tetris and a nice bonus to have this game as an option.

The Bottom Line
It's like Tetris but it's not, it's just another puzzle game.
