Tetris game with a twist
Bored of Tetris games featuring the typical blocks? If so, then Sandtrix is a must-try for you. This free version of the puzzle game operates on a simple yet engaging premise — blocks transform into sand, and it’s your job to clear pixels by connecting the same color across the screen.
A fun way to pass the time
What sets Sandtrix apart from games with a similar premise is that the shifting nature of the blocks into sand requires strategic thinking and swift decision-making skills. You must rapidly identify matching colors and form connections, testing your quick thinking, adaptability, and ability to see patterns on the fly.
There are three game modes — Endless, High Score, and Clear 40 — with three speed settings each. However, this version’s collection of themes and color modes is extremely limited, and the premium version Sandtrix+ is the one that offers the full package. Nonetheless, it’s a minimalist Tetris game that works as a fun pastime.
Worth checking out
By transforming blocks into piles of sand at the end of their descent, Sandtrix breathes new life into the classic block-matching mechanics of Tetris games. While the free version’s customization options and game modes are quite limited, the essence of the game — its engaging modes and thrilling speed settings — ensure an enjoyable experience for all.
