Tetris: This is a review for Tetris DX, not the original Tetris!

I was so mad when I came to review Tetris DX for the GBC and found that it wasn't on the list of games! Fortunately, I improvised and put my Tetris DX review on a Tetris for the original Gameboy review. Anyway, here's my review:
Tetris DX is very simple: I mean all you have to do is is rotate blocks that fall from the top of the screen so they create lines down at the bottom. However, this simplicity is what makes Tetris DX so addicting. In Marathon mode, you basically create lines and try to get the highest possible score. In 40 lines mode, you try to create 40 lines in the fastest possible time. In Ultra mode, you try to get as high a score as you can within a limited amount of time. Those may not sound like much, but they essentially create hours and hours of fun.
The graphics are alright, and I actually find the songs kinda catchy. There were also multiple profiles in case other members of your family wanted to play.
Closing Comments: As I have said before, Tetris DX is simple and addicting. In fact, it is so addicting that I still play it to this day! Who knew that falling blocks would be such a great idea?
