One game we think hasn’t gotten the attention it deserves is Puzzle Prism [App Store]. We briefly reviewed the game back in February and found it to be a really well done Tetris variant.
In this age of premium $0.99 titles, I fear that some will balk at the $3.99 price. But, you know, they can’t all be gory action-adventure epics. Sometimes you just need this sort of classic “go to” game on your iPhone. One that’s fun, plotless, and has long term replayability. Well, here it is.
We’re not sure if our review drove that many sales to the title, but fortunately the developers have released a Lite version to try [App Store].
The free download actually adds a new “Time Trial" mode that is distinct from the “Standard" and “Extra" modes found in the full version. Time Trial limits you to two minutes to attain a higher score and may even be of interest to those who already own the full game.
Both full and lite versions of the game only track your highest 3 scores, and we agree with some commenters that a more fleshed out high score system would be nice. They have, however, added a global high score submission to the full version which allows you to see how you compare to all other players.
This gameplay video (not filmed by us) shows a rushed look at the full version of the game:
