Swap Blocks

Blocks were definitely swapped.

Like any other block swap game, but I really enjoyed playing the VS mode. Enjoyable little game that will keep your eyes glued to the screen. Controller support works well!

It could've been good with a fair few updates, but it doesn't look like it's getting any love unfortunately.

One of the games I have on the virtual console for my New 2DS XL is Pokemon Puzzle Challenge, the Game Boy Color version of Pokemon Puzzle League for the Nintendo 64. I bought Swap Blocks off of Steam thinking it was going to be a game like that. Boy was I wrong. Don't get me wrong, the main concept is the same; move the cursor and swap different color blocks until the form a row or column of 3 or more of the same shape, but the main difference of this game is that the board is pretty much always filled up, and depending on what mode you're playing, you only have a limited number of moves or limited amount of time to beat the high score. With this in mind, you pretty much have to be a lot more strategic in this game, figuring out which moves will provide the most combos, figuring out which blocks would be the best to use power ups on, trying to get those bomb blocks to the bottom of the screen; overall I'd say this is a far more challenging experience. I can't really say much for the challenge mode or the multiplayer modes because I haven't unlocked them yet, but I am really looking forward to seeing how this game progresses. Also, the soundtrack is surprisingly good for a puzzle …
