Meteos is a great all around puzzle game. It is a bit of a twist on the typical tetris-style games. The game is fairly easy to pick up and very addictive once you get the hang of it. Basically, blocks fall from the top of the screen, you match colors, line the blocks up and then launch them upwards in order to clear the screen. Likes: Fast paced and entertaining. Good for a quick game or a more lengthy "star trip". Nice graphics and presentation. Intuitive use of the stylus. Dislikes: The game doesn't seem to save personal scores by name, rather you just see a generic "high score" in different levels. Unlike Tetris-DS, the game doesn't offer many variations on the basic game, rather just different missions with the same gameplay.
I've been a puzzle gamer for a while now, years really, and love games like Tetris Attack (now known as Planet Puzzle League) the original Tetris, Jewel Quest, Kirby's Avalanche, the best of the best. As for Meteos I can truly say I enjoy this game, but it seems as if Intelligent Systems went a bit overboard. Unlockable and collection systems rivaling that of Super Smash Brothers, plenty of game modes, complete difficulty options... While the game plays smoothly and IS addicting, I personally just wanted to get to the action, thus feel like all these other features are wasted. Even the differences between character selection (yes, you can choose your player type) and choice of paths to Meteo feel rather useless. Don't get me wrong, Meteos is a very fun game, it definitely deserves at least four stars and a demo by all the puzzle/casual gamers out there, but the number of features plastered over the core game play feel wasted.Read full review
anyone with a DS owes it to themselves to play this modern day classic puzzler. this game was tapped from the vein of Tetris Attack/Puzzle League. your task is save differerent planets by lining up 3 or more pieces of deadly space garbage of the same color/shape and blast them off into space. the game is very fast paced and fun. and the various planets that you can play on make some differences in gameplay and difficulty, providing lots of replay value. Versus mode is very competitive and a memorable gaming experience. anyone with a DS should certainly add this game to the top of their collection.
Excellent game from Nintendo, quite old, coming from the early days of the DS & DS Lite, but absolutely excellent. One of the best puzzle game there is. If you like the Jewel Quest and 7 Wonders of the World type of games this is for you. The story is quite different here, and takes place in a Science Fiction universe, and the game is quite challenging. You can only slide the cubes vertically, no lateral moves which makes the game very challenging, but extremely interesting. The music and sound effects are both great and the graphic style is excellent also, several difficulty levels and several different play modes extend the life almost indefinitely especially considering the difficulty being quite high in general. Very challenging but also very interesting and rewarding.
Meteos is an entertaining puzzle game. It is a relatively simple format, but you get to use the Nintendo DS' bottom screen, and the stylus for game play. Medeos blocks rain down from the top screen at different rates of speed and to multiple columns.The audio makes this game seem more intense, because you are running out of time, to launch the blocks up to the top screen. It has different levels of gameplay and speeds to master. It is addicting like Tetris, and Lumines. I wanted a game for my Nintendo DS that actually used the double screen. Fun game for adults or kids, give it a try, it is reasonably priced, and totally addicting.
