Pros and cons of Dream of Pixels app for iPhone and iPad

Dream of Pixels app good for

I absolutely LOVE Dream of Pixels, it was totally worth purchasing! Ive been playing for over 6 months now and I can never get enough of it.

This is a fun new take on the familiar tetris formula. My only complaint is that on the iPad the text in some menus is extremely squished together, making it unreadable.

Why isnt everyone playing this game. It is the most thoughtful and beautiful twist on a classic formula I have ever seen.

Simple and pretty! (Id like to know more about the achievements though...I made a double rainbow, but I dont even know what that means)

I love this game and have sank so many hours into it already.

Backwards Tetris. What could go wrong? Nothing, apparently. This game is great.

Some bad moments

I cant get past the Goldie level, and every time I click get help with the level, the whole game crashes. Please fix the bug. As soon as that is fixed, I will be giving it 5 stars!

Game tends to crash as I die, if it wasnt for that I could play for hours.

This game is so relaxing i love it. At the same time the puzzles are challenging as heck and when you complete that one puzzle your stuck on it fills you with a feeling of true success. However, sometimes in the puzzles i have one shape/block left that actually fits the last shape needed, but it wont let me remove it. Like on the puzzle level "Infinity". I have one "L" shape left but it wont work. Other than that its awesome.

I have a terrible spatial sense, which has always made me awful at games like Tetris, with rage-quits aplenty. I wasnt sure if this game would be any different, but I took the leap and Im glad I did. The flipped perspective makes it feel fresh, and the ability to reconnect isolated pieces onto the main mass makes it more forgiving than Tetris without dumbing down the difficulty. This game is amazing, and I highly recommend it. Definitely worth $3.

Great game, lots of fun. Relaxing yet maddeningly addictive. The puzzle mode is a bit boring and doesnt scale in difficulty like some of the others. But well worth the price.

I usually dont write reviews but his game is great! I cant get enough of this addicting, fun game!
