Meteos is a Video game of the type Puzzle, developed by Q Entertainment and published by Bandai in 2005 on Nintendo DS.
This play appears with the first access like a cousin distant from Tetris . The goal is to make disappear from the blocks coloured (Weather) by aligning them. Contrary to Tetris , each block arrives individually of the top of the screen of play. An alignment of three identical blocks causes a firing and makes take off the Weather with the top or the firing.
The originality of the play is to propose several environments in the form of planets with different gravities. Of very weak with very strong, it influences the number of blocks which one can make take off at the same time and make disappear from the screen.
The stylet of the Nintendo DS is used to move the Weather vertically and to create alignments. The triggers right-hand side and left make it possible to increase during an urgent course the speed of the play.
Modes of play
Meteos comprises several modes of play:
- a normal mode for the drive
- a flood mode in which the part stops when the screen is filled with Weather
- a history mode whose scenario is centered around the Meteo planet, an entity which attacks another planets by bombarding them of Weather. The player must defend these planets while returning the Weather in space.
- a fusion mode allowing to free new planets, musics and objects
- a multi-player mode (up to 4 in local Wifi) of which the goal is to fill the screen with play of the adversaries.
