Klax.. as timeless as Tetris and Columns. Ported from system to system over the years, it's made a try at the Gameboy Color system. The graphics are dark, the brown tiles are hard to see (they blend in with the background of your drop-bin), and the gameplay gets furious. You have to love Klax to love this game, but I'd have to recommend Tetris DX first. The game remains true to its name, and there's nothing really new here except for a 'freestyle mode' where you don't play the game level by level (where you're required to make certain kinds of 'klaxes' or reach a point limit or use up a certain number of tiles before you can advance to the next level), but instead just play for points until your game is over. It's a decent game overall, and good for a quick diversion, but again, I would recommend adding this brain-game to your library if you know you already like Klax, and if you've already got (or can't find) Tetris DX.

If you like games like Tetris, you'll love Klax. I'm currently on my second Klax cartridge, having given my first to a friend because I couldn't put it down! I didn't last long without it, although it took me a while to find another. It's always challenging and has great graphics, however it's a little dark (I find that a worm light helps). I haven't used any of my other games in months, if that tells you anything!
