Blockout (MS-DOS)



Blockout (1989) is a puzzle game for MS-DOS. In short, this game is Tetris in 3D, from a bird's eye view. The controls are strange and overall the game isn't very fun. I'm not sure how this game could be made better, as the concept itself is entirely too ridiculous. On top of that, the game has no music! What a ripoff. Still, props to the people who had the guts to make such a hard Tetris variant.

Description quiz:
A) Tetris vs Columns: Which is better?
B) There's a rumor going around that Tetris has been ripped off too many times.
C) How many more videos until VGA Chronicles Guy runs out of survey question ideas?
E) You're in an alley. You have 5 Yoshi eggs. 3 hatch, but 4 remain. Suddenly, Super Mario appears out of nowhere and throws 10 fire balls at you. If 17 Luigis block the fireballs, while 2 Pikachus and 60 Samus Arans take control of the situation, how many Bowsers are in the alley by 3 p.m.?

Thanks for watching VGA Chronicles. You are cool.
