Gameplay: Well the gameplay is very similiar to tetris. The whole point of the game is to create 4 block squares of the same color by using the blocks that are given and you would get a certain amount of points for that. You can also get points for clearing all the blocks( 10,000 points) and for only having one color on the floor. So yeah that souns very simple. You can unlock skins by playing the challenge mode, in all there is 39 skins to play with. So the gameplay is very simple, but it takes some time to get used to it. Graphics: The graphics are really cool, in my opinion the best the PSP has to offer so far. The skins are cool and colorful. And each skin is different in its own way. Sound: Each skin has its own musical track, which get's you "pumped" and in the mood to play. Although sometimes the "techno" music gets annoying, so instead of earning a 9 I gave it a 10. Overall, if you like puzzle games you'll have a great time playing this, defianetly great to bring on the road or a really long trip(I brang mine on a field trip to NYC)
