Tricky Towers is an interesting logic game for PC and PS4. It was developed by Dutch studio WeirdBeard, the creators of 99 Bricks Wizard Academy. The creators consider their new title as the spiritual successor of the previous project because it is based on same principles that were strongly expanded.

Mechanics

Tricky Towers for PC and PS4 is a modern variation of Tetris. The players are tasked with combining colorful blocks that fall from the sky. In difference to the famous game, in Tricky Towers the bricks don’t disappear but create a tower instead. The player is tasked with creating as tall a construction as possible; which isn’t an easy task because of game’s physics. The tower can start tilting or even collapse if the pieces are connected in wrong way.

DualShockers: 7 / 10 by Steven Santana

The trials in Tricky Tower can significantly extend your game time due to their difficulty and quantity. However, beyond that single player option you can either engage in battles against friends locally or online, or try to see how many blocks you can stack in endless mode, and that’s it. Tricky Tower is a simple game, but the luck factor for success in a majority of the game modes can cause much more frustrating than something where the player’s skill has a larger affect on the outcome.

TheSixthAxis: 7 / 10 by Dominic Leighton

If you’re approaching Tricky Towers with only single player in mind, there are probably far better ways to spend your time. However, take it online – or ideally get some mates round – and you’ve suddenly got a fun, competitive little title that’ll easily keep you amused for a few hours.

Nintendo Life: 8 / 10 by Mitch Vogel

Tricky Towers offers up a cool twist on a puzzle classic, and the focus on multiplayer battling makes this an ideal game for showing off the Switch's unique capability for multiplayer gaming on the go. Everybody knows how to play Tetris, and Tricky Towers does just enough to build on that core concept to make the game interesting and weird enough to be quite memorable. Although the single player offerings are a bit on the slim side, we enjoyed our time with Tricky Towers and would highly recommend it for anybody looking for a good couch multiplayer or puzzle game.
