Hack description

If you think that the Game Boy version of Tetris is easy? Then this hack will enhance the experience by making it harder.

There are different versions of this hack included in this package and most of 'em are for the 1.1 version of the game.

Also includes files specifically made for BizHawk.

If you like, there's also encoded movies in the deluxe package which is optional and be downloaded from my website.

Not for the faint of heart!Ziko2017-01-08Version Various

When the hacker meant hardcore, oh he meant it! This game is not your daddy's Tetris and it shows in a lot of areas. Great care was taken not only to make the graphics on the tetrominos stand out, but also make the game a lot faster and more difficult as you rise in levels. In fact, the game seems to take a lot from the NES port in that it has the killscreen once you reach past Level 20 which I did not as I stalled at 18 from the insane speed increase. The music is different depending on the version you use for the patch so if you want to here the normal music, make use to use the patch for the 1.1 and above versions.

Beyond all that, it's really a game for experts as it can wear down even the most casual of players. This game is still great even if it's the vanilla game but this game is definitely for skilled players. I give it my seal of approval.
