Other Comments:
If you have an external keyboard, there is also a 2-player mode if you want to challenge a friend to a game. Read the MANUAL.TXT file in the Squarez directory for the key layouts for each player. The MANUAL.TXT file also has good hints on how to play and win the game.
Positives
: I find this game more fun than Tetris since there’s more options to think about as you’re moving and rotating the blocks. Plus the full game is FREE!!
Negative
: The graphics look a little dated.
DosBox Issues:
None!
Overall game rating:
4.25 stars out of 5
