What I liked
The bricks do not fall in straight lines but instead sink sideways as if sliding through a sandstorm in the desert. Each arrangement is a battle of wits and reflexes, where you have to rotate quickly before the sand covers the entire screen. Sandtrix is not just a game, but a challenge that requires you to constantly improvise and overcome your limits.
What I didn't like
With innovative gameplay and simple but eye-catching graphics, Sandtrix offers an experience that is both relaxing and thought-provoking. Unlike traditional Tetris, where every block has a fixed shape, the blocks in Sandtrix can change shape when falling, bringing an element of surprise and challenge. This is an ideal choice for those who love puzzle games but still want to try something new and physics-based.
My overall impression
Sandtrix is an interesting puzzle game, a unique combination of the familiar block falling mechanism of Tetris and the realistic physical effects of sand. In this game, blocks are made up of small grains of sand falling in real time, creating new and attractive challenges. Players not only need to be agile but also have to calculate skillfully to arrange and take advantage of the “flowing” properties of sand to score points.
