Quick Look: Tricky Towers

This game is fantastic

Ya'll real bad at Tetris

This game actually looks real cool to me.

@zaphodi: I pay for online play. The games are free. Come at me.

Im all about ICY Towers

A precursor to this game has been out on iOS since February of last year, I highly recommend it if this looks like fun to you! It's by the same developer and is called 99 Bricks Wizard Academy by WeirdBeard

It is free, you're not paying those 10 bucks for the game. You pay the 10 bucks for PS Plus, the game itself is free on top of that. And I don't see how that's a rent, you get it and you keep it forever.

So many bad choices in magic use! (but at least they realize that)

Dan: *goes over laser* ...Did I win?

@huckleberrysassacre: That ancient freeware endless climber?

@simkas: You keep the games only if you keep paying for PS+, so it is like a rent. You're paying to have them and to be able to play them. Also, before PS4, PS+ for PS3 was pretty much only about the games so yes, people were paying just for the games. Most people still are. The rest is just an extra to the package.

I was trying to remember where I had heard the little musical diddy in-game before, and holy crap it's the same tune that was played over and over...and over...and...over

during the Amiibo Festival-Festival!

I feel like there's been a handful of games that have tried to do the "Tetris + Physics" thing, but none of them have been any fun outside of Trash Panic. Had a blast playing this game online last night.

I heard Dan was offered a commentary job at the WWE. Congrats. Best of luck to him.

I was surprised there weren't any "OMG DAN'S LAST QL" posts before this one, frankly.

This game is spectacular. Probably my new go to time killer.

@dpresting: thanks for that post! Always looking for fun games for my commute.

Fun quick look guys. Nice when the 4 of you play.

You only get to keep it as long as your subscription is active. once you stop paying, the games are removed and you can never play them again. I know, I dropped my subscription by accident by being out of the country for 2 days after it ended, I re-upped it and no more ps plus games up to the re-sub month. I called and they said, "Tough luck" so yeah... it is renting until your subscription is up.

This is not tetris.

Cannot believe people are still having this pedantic argument about PS Plus games not really being free.

Folks, trust us: We know. You haven't cracked some riddle.

So long as you actually play your games and don't hoard them for some magical day where you'll suddenly get around to playing all of them (you won't, look at your backlog of PS2 games you "play one day"), it's an incredible value, whether you consider them free or "free."

WIZARD OUT!

This game is great!

Yo, that is not a house its the crown to your sick new Wizarding Keep.

ah so theyre totrids

this looks relaxing very good production values

From the banner it looked like the umpteenth bad mobile port. Glad you were able to showcase this game or I would have totally ignored it otherwise.

The closest thing PC players have to the "renting digital game" thing that XBL/PSN users have is that Humble Monthly thing. Steam should get in on this and offer some games for a monthly fee.

PS plus in the US can be had for $40 or under for a year basically year round if you just do a quick google search. Please stop with this $10 a month nonsense. Even at the normal price of $50 a year its a fantastic deal for the games you get but at $40 its a must have.

This isn't Not Tetris, this is Not Tetris!

THIS is world record play

WIZARD OUT

I was really disappointed at how little content there was when I tried this yesterday, but I clearly missed the point of it. The multiplayer looks SUPER fun.

Also, speaking of this month's Plus games... Ultratron. Play it. It's fantastic.

@shagge: Yep, I'd say Ultratron's the pick of the PS4 games. Wonderful little game.

PS+ went bonkers when they have this and Rebel Galaxy as free.

Wizard (Dan) OUT!

source? I might watch wwe for that at least once for the lols.

For such a cute and charming little game there sure was a lot of swearing in this quick look.

Wizard out

tell my mother i'm going home / i have been destroyed by Tricky Towers

The iOS version 99 Bricks is pretty awesome also

Are they playing on a ps4 or pc? I got it on the pc and there is no one playing online. I might get a refund.

@simkas: when he says rent it is because you lose access to PS+ games if you stop subscribing to PS+

You don't own them you are licensing their use. Some people care about that, some do not.

All I can think of in my head right now is DDP advertising this game, repeatedly saying "THIS AINT YOUR MOMMA'S TETRIS!"

Thats what I'm saying! Its pretty interesting to see how they expanded upon and modified physics and gameplay elements from the iOS game.

Getting this for sure. Wizard out
