Tricky Towers Reviews
The trials in Tricky Tower can significantly extend your game time due to their difficulty and quantity. However, beyond that single player option you can either engage in battles against friends locally or online, or try to see how many blocks you can stack in endless mode, and that’s it. Tricky Tower is a simple game, but the luck factor for success in a majority of the game modes can cause much more frustrating than something where the player’s skill has a larger affect on the outcome.
Tricky Towers is a good romp when playing local multiplayer with friends – the floppy physics add tension (both literally and metaphorically) and the spells make the gameplay interesting and dynamic. The gameplay suffers quite a bit in single player, though, and even though the price is cheap, the game does wear thin eventually.
The single-player aspect of Tricky Towers is challenging, but can get rather frustrating due to its random elements. However, as a multiplayer game, Tricky Towers works really well. Its tower-building gameplay is incredibly easy to pick up and play, and it delivers fierce and fun competition that offers plenty of ways for players to mess with one another. Definitely recommended as a party game, or if you have friends and family to play with.
Not just an exceptional title that breathes fresh life into the traditional Tetris formula, Tricky Towers also gives a great account of itself for those folks looking to test their brains rather than their trigger fingers in both local and online multiplayer gatherings.
Tricky Towers is not fun or enjoyable, but you might get something out of it if you’re a masochist.
Tricky Towers is an okay single-player game, but you’re going to want this Tetris-inspired skyscraper builder for some couch co-op. It’s easy enough to grasp, but it’d be a whole lot more satisfying if the balance of the game wasn’t heavily favouring the luck of the draw over actual player skill.
Tricky Towers is provided with many challenges, even though you will probably reach the end of the game in about four hours. Its multiplayer mode is fun, especially the local one, but it would have been nice to have an official ranking area to "fight" seriously. The game has a great potential, but it remains unexpressed.

Tricky Towers is one of the best competitive puzzlers that I've played in a while.
An innovative little puzzler that stacks up well, and will keep you entertained for a weekend.
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.
Whether it’s with three friends on the couch or with strangers online, Tricky Towers is, in every way, better as a party game
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.
Between the fluid puzzle gameplay with the addition of dark and light magic and the bright, playful graphics, Tricky Towers is a must have!
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.
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.
Tricky Towers is a pleasant video game intended for casual gamers. If that's you, then we can only recommend the game.

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.

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.

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.
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.
