  • Summary: (Also known as "Kollon" in Japan, "Koloomn" in the UK/EU) Match and twist colored blocks to clear the playfield as quick as you can – it sounds simple, but blocks change sizes, are sometimes hidden or worse. You’ll need fancy footwork and a fast thumb – keep up or get kicked out. Experience the first Tetris-like puzzle game for the PSP and join the party. Five Exciting Modes of Play: Arcade, Campaign, Versus CPU, Single Player, and Wi-Fi support for riveting, head-to-head action. 8 Japanese Anime-style characters. Each character features advanced A.I. for even more challenge. Expand

  1. With the deep and strategic gameplay, a great tutorial and a variety of modes including a two-player ad hoc wireless mode, there's no reason not to purchase UBP.
  2. The new rotation mechanic takes some getting used to, but Koloomn proves complex, satisfying and horribly addictive. Good stuff. [Apr 2006, p.113]
  3. Six months on, we're still playing "Lumines." This is only a mildly amusing diversion. [May 2006, p.74]

    This game is fun as hell. If you like Lumines, etc., this is a friendly alternative for shorter bursts. (Darn that Lumines for lasting like 2 hours...) Expand
