The action puzzle game "TETRIS® THE GRAND MASTER" first appeared in game arcades in August 1998, and became a beloved game for gamers as a Tetris game packed with addictive elements.
Then, "TETRIS THE ABSOLUTE THE GRAND MASTER 2" was released in 2000, and "TETRIS THE GRAND MASTER 3 -Terror Instinct-" was released in 2005. The latest in the series, "TETRIS THE GRAND MASTER 4 -ABSOLUTE EYE-", will be available on Steam for the first time in 20 years.
This time, "TGM4" offers players a deeper, more strategic Tetris experience, and the depth of the game will satisfy even experienced players. New modes have been added, and this game will test your skills to the limit, requiring precise strategy and fast play.
Of course, there are also modes that even beginners to Tetris can enjoy, and the game is so full of charm that you will find yourself retrying it over and over again.
The sound is handled by Shinji Hosoe, who is well known for the TGM series. His music, full of tension and excitement, will increase the player's concentration and make the game even more exciting.
*Players can compete against each other in local play.
We will introduce the game modes available in "TETRIS THE GRAND MASTER 4 -ABSOLUTE EYE-".
MARATHON: This is a traditional Tetris mode where you compete for the highest score.
- Operation Type: STANDARD
NORMAL: This is a traditional Tetris mode where you compete to clear lines in the fastest time.
- Operation Type: TGM
ASUKA: This mode is recommended for intermediate players. Tetriminos will drop at top speed, so place them quickly to clear lines and compete to see how high you can level up within the time limit.
Additionally, ASUKA mode comes with a backstep function. By using the rewind feature, you can revert a placed Tetrimino back to the moment before it landed and try again.
MASTER: This is a challenging mode designed for advanced players where all of your Tetris skills will be put to the test. Strive to level up as much as possible. Tetriminos will drop at maximum speed right from the start, so stack them carefully to clear lines. Use every technique at your disposal—like T-Spins and All Clears—to take on the challenge.
KONOHA: This mode features big blocks. Every time you achieve an All Clear, you unlock a bonus illustration. Early on, a guide will appear to help you complete All Clears, and whenever you pull one off, a bonus illustration will be revealed.
You can view all unlocked visuals in the KONOHA Character Gallery. Try to unlock every character!
SHIRANUI: In this mode, you’ll face off against CPU opponents. Defeat CPUs with different strategies as you aim to conquer the highest difficulty level.
When you defeat a CPU, several new levels are unlocked. Generally, the higher the difficulty (Tier), the tougher the CPU. Plus, under certain conditions, a hidden difficulty may appear…!?
This game tickles my Tetris brain just right 10/10
I see: "TGM" I buy. I welcome the suffering. 10/10.
I am mostly familiar with modern games (unfortunately), but I got into TGM before this game's release with a cracked copy of TGM 3. I didn't really understand the appeal of that game until I tried grabbing my old arcade stick, setting the gate to 4-way and playing classic rule for a few rounds. What an absolute masterpiece. The innovation of sonic drop and preservation of locking soft drop alone completely change the feel of the game and make playing it on arcade one of the most satisfyingly tactile experiences I've ever had. This is that but peak. If you are coming from modern Tetris, don't write the game off until you've sunk some time into TGM rule on arcade. From what I understand, more experienced players are expressing concerns with elements outside of the core game, but if you are a newcomer with an appetite for good-feeling, challenging games this is a quality game that is properly representative of its series.
it's tetris what more can I say. well I guess I could say that the funny big mode and the cool tgm stuff is here but like it's tetris come on. who doesn't like tetris. The game did have a pretty rough launch but as of writing this review everything has been basically cleaned up for the most part and it should work on most modern machines perfectly fine.
I really like this game :) (80 hours moving Tetriminoes)
Extremely fun — whew!!
