About This Game
Tetris Attack is a tile-matching puzzle game where players must clear blocks by matching three or more of the same color horizontally or vertically. The game features a unique 'chain reaction' system where clearing blocks can cause cascading combos.
The game was rebranded with Yoshi characters for Western markets to increase appeal, though the original Japanese version featured fairy characters. It includes various modes like Puzzle, Endless, and Versus for competitive play.
Tetris Attack became highly influential in the puzzle genre and spawned several sequels and spiritual successors. Its fast-paced gameplay and combo system made it a favorite among competitive puzzle game players.
