Tricky Towers Reviews
A fun take on the often-copied Tetris, Tricky Towers hits a lot of notes right. Players will be trying for "just one more round" and the magic spells keep the playing field level and interesting. While not a deep game, there is a lot to enjoy about Tricky Towers.
Tricky Towers is a fun puzzle game with a unique twist and perfect for pick up and play gaming. The game really shines when you play couch competitive multiplayer with friends.
Overall Tricky Towers is an excellent idea, generally well executed, with a few areas that could use improvement. Ultimately though, it's fun to play alone, with friends, or with strangers, and puzzle game fans will no doubt find many hours of enjoyment.
Tricky Towers offers up a cool twist on a puzzle classic, and the focus on multiplayer battling makes this an ideal game for showing off the Switch's unique capability for multiplayer gaming on the go. Everybody knows how to play Tetris, and Tricky Towers does just enough to build on that core concept to make the game interesting and weird enough to be quite memorable. Although the single player offerings are a bit on the slim side, we enjoyed our time with Tricky Towers and would highly recommend it for anybody looking for a good couch multiplayer or puzzle game.
All in all, Tricky Towers is a fun little multiplayer-focused title. While there is single player, I personally don't feel that it provides enough on its own to warrant a purchase. However, if you have local or online friends who enjoy a good puzzle game (and particularly Tetris), then this is easily worth the price of admission. Just please don't blame us when that friendship is strained by the dark magic powers in the game.
Tricky Towers is an incredibly creative and unique take on the puzzle genre. I just wish there was more to unlock and explore as it does have incredible potential. Nevertheless, I do recommend this brick-stacker to anyone looking for a fun local and online multiplayer experience.
Offering up a mix of iconic tetronimoes with a tower-building mechanic and some real concerns with gravity and your creation topping over this title can make for a lot of fun with friends...
It makes for a decent puzzle title with an interesting concept that is shackled by an issue that ruins the experience by making easy moves difficult and difficult moves impossible.
While the physics work well, the music is decent, and the bright colourful nature it emits is absolutely fine, without anyone to play Tricky Towers with, you're left with a game that is very much left wanting.
Overall, the game is fun for a short time, but it's never anything on which you are going to spend a huge amount of time.
Tricky Towers is a party game first and foremost, best played with friends. Grab some extra controllers and have hours of fun trying to knock the bricks out of your mates. The ease in which your friends will be able to grasp the mechanics is Tricky Tower's greatest asset, and it is worth the asking price alone.
An arcade title with wicked puzzles, the Tetris's unruly grandson who proposes a fun return to the subgenre. Unfortunately, its lack of personality in the visual and sonorous aspects blurs the experience a little but the game has a great level of imagination.

A good Tetris evolution that relays more on its multiplayer component than on the single player part, but can become the king of your parties.

Tricky Towers is a pleasant video game intended for casual gamers. If that's you, then we can only recommend the game.

Tricky Towers is recommended if you know you're going to be playing it with people all the time. Although the online community is practically nonexistent, the chaos of local multiplayer makes it a game that you can put in constant rotation without anyone getting tired of it. While it does have a good, clean presentation, it doesn't have much to offer in the single-player department to keep players engaged.
A blend of physics-based tetris and magic in a sweet little package makes this a must have for gamers of all ages and sizes.
Between the fluid puzzle gameplay with the addition of dark and light magic and the bright, playful graphics, Tricky Towers is a must have!
There’s something inherently satisfying about seeing your friends visibly devastated when their dreams of an architecture career come crashing down in front of their eyes.
Whether it’s with three friends on the couch or with strangers online, Tricky Towers is, in every way, better as a party game
If you’re approaching Tricky Towers with only single player in mind, there are probably far better ways to spend your time. However, take it online – or ideally get some mates round – and you’ve suddenly got a fun, competitive little title that’ll easily keep you amused for a few hours.
