Powertris has a solid concept. It does. And playing it on iOS proved that it works. But something got lost in translation when moving to the Nintendo Switch, and unless you’re a diehard Tetris fan who really needs something different to learn how to master, I can’t see the appeal. If you’re remotely interested in the title, grab it on mobile first for a test run; otherwise it’s best to lay these pipes to rest.

About
Powertris is a creative mix of two well-known and well-liked classical titles – Tetris and Pipemania.
By placing blocks, the player must pay attention to whether both sides of the system are connected with the sockets on the edges of the screen.
During the game, the player will have to make quick decisions as well as use special blocks.

Critic reviews
- Issues aside, Powertris is not exactly bad. Sure, its presentation is beyond lazy, and it does suffer from an annoying amount of input lag, but as a puzzle game, it’s quite decent. It features a simple but creative “Tetris meets Pipemania” gameplay loop, which is the most important thing for game in the genre. Despite being nowhere near as good as other puzzle games for the Switch, fans should definitely check it out. It’s dirt cheap as well, which is always a bonus.
