Lumines for Sony PSP

Don’t listen to the non-believers - the fools who will tell you that Lumines is just another Tetris clone. They might have a point, but they’re entirely missing THE point. This is a Tetsuya Mizuguchi production, and like his previous game, Rez, there is more to Lumines than first appears.

Like Rez, it takes a fairly standard format - for Rez it was the 3D shoot-em-up, here it’s the block-puzzle game - then fuses it with a stunning mixture of cool dance music, psychedelic visuals and hypnotic gameplay. In other words, this is this is not just a game, but an experience.
