Addictive as hell, with a splash of awesome-funky-cool-o-rama. [Feb 2008, p.83]

PC Format

The world of Lumines isn't always a pretty place, but it looks much better in motion. Try it. Hey, it's free. [Mar 2008, p.110]

PC Zone UK

Effective time Hoover. [July 2008, p.84]

IGN

Lumines is a beautiful distraction that can be as relaxing as it is challenging. While the base gameplay is enjoyable the few outstanding features are missing from the PC version.

Grizzly W. gave it a10:
Lumines is the best puzzle game I have played since that one that starts with a T... It pairs up some pretty graphics and great sound (most of the time) to create a very pleasant puzzle environment. The only major issue I have with the PC version ovre say, Lumines Live, is that you do not have the option for the "booster" sets... at least not as of yet. And as someone has pointed out somewhere before, try it! The demo is free!

Jubei Saotome gave it a10:
A classic, one of the defining puzzle games of this generation.

Kurtis H. gave it a10:
This is an absolutely fantastic puzzler that doesn't dissapoint, even after many hours of playing.

Vitor gave it an8:
Very addictive gameplay here. It's only missing the multiplayer mode, but I really don't mind this. I'm having a problem with controls in the menu (Steam version), and it lags a little when changing skins, but I believe these problems will be fixed. Great graphics and music. All in all, this is a very good game. Buy it!

Rob B. gave it an8:
Simple, yet fun game. Very addictive.

Max Z. gave it a9:
Puzzle gaming at its best. I'm think it's the fact that it seems to combine a puzzle game with action elements (sometimes you have to be reaaaally fast) and with cool tunes, which make s this game so addictive. It really needs more skins for longer gameplay, tho, and an internet ranking system would be rad.

Jay H. gave it a6:
Fun enough puzzler. The dynamic music could be much improved by a few samples that don't sound ripped straight from Dance eJay. The graphics are servicable if sometimes a little distracting, but more could be done to make this port feel like a PC game instead of a stripped down console port. Where's the multiplayer options?
