Polarium
About the Game
This is a puzzle game similar to Tetris in that blocks fall from above, and to clear the lines before the screen fills up, you must create horizontal lines of all the same color (either black or white). To change the color (or "polarity") of a block, you must select it with the stylus, then tap it again to make the block flip. You can also drag the stylus along the screen to change the polarity if many block at the same time. There is also a puzzle mode where time isn't as critical.
Gameplay & Core Systems
There are 100 puzzles in this mode and they can get very difficult. The multiplayer mode does not require 2 Game Cards to play.
Standout Features
- Utilizing the DS's two screens, you can see your blocks and your opponent's blocks.
- The person that received the game can play a simple demo of the game by themselves.
Modes & Ways to Play
The most addicting part of this game is the multiplayer. In fact, when the game is sent over to another DS through the IPL, they don't even need to play multiplayer.
