This is a good but very noticeably aged arcade style Tetris game. It is primarily designed to be played with two players, but you can still play a single player infinite marathon game if you'd like. The main problems all come from its age. Blocks lock into place very fast, there is no hold feature, and the game barely tells you what pieces are on their way. It is a solid Tetris game and i had fun with it, but its not the single player Tetris game i was hoping for on switch.

it is not primarily designed to be played with 2 players, and is not infinite. there is an ending that can be achieved in under 10 minutes of play, but not many will acheive that

i must clarify that i am not tryin to be on "umm actually" ish, but i will not stand to see my ride or die misrepresented.

it's got 2 fields, so 2 players can play at once, sitting in front of the same machine, either separately. its predecessor defaults to just show 1 field even though it also has a versus mode, tgm 2 and 3 always show two fields unless it's doubles, where it is a single, double width field that both players stack in. master, TA death and normal modes are all singleplayer with an ending after a credits sequence, and the former 2 are the primary focus of the game. another detail worth noting is that the next piece is announced with an audio cue as well, but 3-preview and hold would come in its successor.

i sympathize with you in your efforts to find a modern tetris game that is conducive to single play, hope you eventually find the one that suits what you need
