Verdict: A worthy update to this classic game

Possibly one of the longest running games, Tetris has lost nothing of it's original excitement and addictiveness. Kevtris is a very good version for PocketPC combining the best of the original with some fun extras.

The rules of Kevtris are very simple, arrange the falling blocks to make complete lines that disappear, leaving room for more. Simple does not mean easy, one slip can ruin a game and as more lines are completed the game speeds up.

Kevtris follows the basic rules of Tetris with the seven basic shapes. Medium and hard difficulty levels start with the shapes dropping faster and several lines of 'junk' that must be worked around.

Thrillseekers can opt to include some unusual shapes that make the game much harder for a real challenge. It is also possible to play with the same sequence of shapes for improving your game.

Oh, and the reason behind the name - it was written by a guy called Kevin.
