As blocks break, gamers are given a fraction of a second in which to continue swapping, arranging, and otherwise tweaking the layout of the board. Again, fast gamers can rearrange existing blocks underneath the garbage as it transforms into useable puzzle pieces. If the newly-formed pieces fall into a horizontal or vertical line, the player gets a chain.
Time Zone challenges the players to complete as many block matches as possible within two minutes.
Puzzle University serves as the obligatory limited-move puzzle mode. The Spa Service pits you against Team Rocket in a battle to lower the stack beneath a certain height. Most of these gameplay modes have already been seen in Tetris Attack, but gamers are sure to appreciate the depth of play. Even so, the 3D mode is at least diverting, entertaining, and still more fun and balanced than most puzzle games. An in-depth record mode lets multiple gamers save their badges, trophies and diplomas, as well as their best score, chain, combo, time, and number of continues used for all requisite modes.
