I love Tetris, that much is obvious.
I played the original Game Boy version on Switch and I've had fun playing 99, too, as well as a tiny LCD game version and I thought I was set until I happened upon Tetris Effect for free with a PlayStation Plus membership.

This is probably the most beautiful version of Tetris I've ever seen.
I see myself as pretty good at the game so that wasn't much of a distraction from the gorgeous visuals.
Earth from above, ethereal jellyfish, dolphins that jump out of the water every time you get a line, it's all bloody marvellous.

Not to mention the soundtrack, which honestly rivals recent electronic releases. I might actually listen to the album on its own eventually because a lot of it sounds a lot like the music of Porter Robinson and Madeon.

Sure, single player Tetris might get a bit boring after a while but I love playing it and the changes every 35 lines keep me well engaged.

This is definitely my go-to Tetris game when I need some time to think because it really does the job and then some.

The VR Mode also really enhances the experience, too.
