    It has a bit of a steep learning curve at the beginning (it took me a few games to figure out even a semblance of a strategy), but Droplitz is a VERY addictive game. I ended up playing accidentally playing until 3:00am, and had "Droplitz Dreams" (like Tetris-dreams) all night. It would have a higher score if it simply took it easier on you for the first few levels while you tried to figure out what was going on. I recommend this game for anyone looking for a light puzzle game (for their laptop or netbook). Expand

    OK and addictive gameplay from Atlus/Blitz Games - may get boring though to some after a long while of playing. Nice graphics and music that cycles - sometimes too quickly. Boring board layouts that get bigger and inject more complexity. Nice modes (the remainder need to be unlocked before accessing them). Bare bones in-game manual. Leaderboards to see how you rank among the best scores. Did I mention, it's from Atlus - maker of FRPG war games? Expand

    a big bug is included (i can't download or upload highscores - so i can't get to the main-menu after playing) - but the game is great

    This is an interesting game that I can play for a few spare minutes and then put down when I want to. It runs well, sounds good, and looks good. The game itself is a simple concept, done well. I like it.

    cud do with more special effects and customisable themes i'd say but it's a very very good arcade game, addictive and not too easy

    It takes a bit to figure out just what is happening, how the multipliers work, and so on. However, once you get it, Droplitz is a refreshing twist on a puzzle genre obsessed with matching sets of three or more things.

    I bought on steam with a big discount (2 Euros), for that price it gets an 8. If i would have bought it at the normal price it would be an 6. The gameplay is easy to get a hang of, but the game does get boring pretty quickly. When it comes to graphics the game is also very basic. Fun game though to play once in a while.

  1. Though the difficulty can be hard to swallow at times, the puzzle gameplay quickly grows on you.
  2. 75
    The art style and music don't show a lot of personality, but the gameplay is simple and addicting. It'll claim several hours of your life before you even notice they're gone.
  3. Droplitz is one of those under-the-radar games that, in spite of how good it is, has gotten lost in the commotion and hoopla of the summer games season.
