Stanislav Merezhko recently introduced a game called Doptrix to the
Android Market. I have to say that at first glance, I wasn't expecting
anything brilliant. I was mistaken.
Doptrix turns Tetris-like gameplay on its head, literally. The game uses a familiar four-block shape pushing premise, but allows the player to turn, rotate, and flip the game board as they choose. The player can also choose when (and from what position) a shape launches toward the board.

Taking
this unique gameplay to another level, Doptrix includes three modes of
play: Classic, Alternative, and Puzzle. Classic mode uses familiar
Tetris shapes, and allows the player to move them left or right before
swiping them up to the game board.
Alternative mode
also uses simple shapes, but does not allow the player to move shapes
before launching them, requiring cunning, and a certain level of
strategy.
Puzzle mode, as the name suggests, requires
players to solve a variety of shape puzzles, adding a new dimension of
challenge to an already tough game. Currently there are 10 puzzles to
solve, and it sounds as if more are in the works.
If
you're a fan of challenging, simply-designed puzzle games, or if you're
just searching for an excellent time waster, Doptrix is definitely worth a look, especially considering it's free from the Android Market.
