The full game includes 120 action-packed levels for you to master. TiQal is addictive and easy to learn, yet presents challenging gameplay.

  1. You will need to play the game to realize its potential and accept that TiQal is definitely one of Xbox Live Arcade's greatest games to date.

    Lumines and Tetris may have paved the way with their falling block puzzles, but TiQal holds its own with a combination of gorgeous presentation, humorous writing and a simple yet entertaining puzzle structure. TiQal is worth your time, money and praise.
  3. Ultimately, the power-ups and new block groups are the only things that expand TiQal's experience, and they're artificially spaced as unlockables within single-player.
  4. Things couldn't get more generic unless there was somehow stealth, crates and a space marine superhero involved. [Issue#32, p.117]
