'''''Tetris DS''''' is a puzzle | '''''Tetris DS''''' is a puzzle title for the [[Nintendo DS]] featuring familiar ''Tetris'' gameplay with a Nintendo theme and several new modes. Since the first ''[[Tetris]]'' handheld title was released on the original [[Game Boy]], the series has been a great system-seller, sometimes even releasing multiple titles per system under the guidance of Nintendo and other publishers. ''Tetris DS'' was developed internally by [[Nintendo]]. However, to set it apart from the previous games in the series, the game capitalized on Nintendo's famous retro games and characters, which include the ''[[Mario (franchise)|Mario]]'' franchise, as the backdrops and inspiration for the ''Tetris'' action. The game is also part of Nintendo’s {{wp|Touch! Generations}} series of games, "intended for a variety of demographics". | ||

The uniting theme behind any ''Tetris'' title is to arrange Tetriminos, shapes made of four colored blocks, into horizontal lines in a 10 block wide well. When a row of the well is filled with blocks, regardless of color, the row will disappear and a player’s score will increase. Bonus points are awarded for clearing more than one row at once. Clearing four lines is called a "Tetris," and is worth the most points. However, as soon as one mass of blocks is laid, another begins to fall. If the blocks ever overflow out of the arena, the player fails. Unlike most other puzzlers, such as [[Dr. Mario & Puzzle League|Puzzle League]], the blocks do not always come in the same arrangement. Instead, there are seven different block patterns. They may be rotated as a group, even when first landing on other blocks or the floor, but their form will not change. Also, players may speed up the game by warping blocks to the floor in certain modes instead of waiting for them to fall. Markers at the floor show where they will land. It is also possible to "hold" a Tetrimino until it is needed later. | The uniting theme behind any ''Tetris'' title is to arrange Tetriminos, shapes made of four colored blocks, into horizontal lines in a 10 block wide well.

''Tetris DS'' sets itself apart through its wide variety of modes. Each mode keeps the same basic rules intact, but is very liberal with them. Also, up to ten people can play against each other at once with local multiplayer. The main draw of the game is the utilization of the [[Nintendo Wi-Fi Connection]], which allows for multiplayer games for two to four players. | ''Tetris DS'' sets itself apart through its wide variety of modes.

Standard mode is a version of the basic ''Tetris'' game; it has no new twists or new rules in single-player mode compared to other games based on the Tetris Guideline. However, it does keep the ability to rotate blocks after they have landed, which was introduced in ''Tetris Worlds''. This concept is relatively new to the series, but it was altered for this version, and a time limit in multiplayer mode adds back some of the challenge that it took away when the infinite spin concept was first introduced. | Standard mode is a version of the basic ''Tetris'' game; it has no new twists or new rules in single-player mode compared to other games based on the Tetris Guideline.

If one clears a row, the mass moves toward his or her opponent, decreasing the opponent’s play area and increasing the player's. The player who pushes the pile all the way out of the screen towards their opponent wins. | ||
The mode is decorated by a ''Donkey Kong'' inspired environment. [[Pauline]] and [[Donkey Kong]] can be seen at the very top of the screen when it scrolls, and [[Mario]] walks around the girders on the top screen, dodging [[barrel]]s and using the [[ladder]]s. Mario's [[Hammer]] and Pauline's [[Parasol]] are located to the left of the playing field. Also, as ones play field grows smaller, fire erupts from the [[oil drum]] at the bottom of the screen. In the original game, barrels burned up when they hit this fire. The classic ''Donkey Kong'' beeps play in the background. It speeds up as the blocks near one of the edges. | |||

Part of Nintendo's effort to use the Nintendo DS' touch screen in all possible games, this mode allows players to use their stylus to shift and rotate a pre-set arrangement of the blocks. While most other modes feature falling blocks, this mode has them already in place. By arranging them in horizontal lines, they will disappear. The game ends when no more combinations can be made. Players strive to clear the most points possible. | |||
''Balloon Fight'' provides the backdrop for this mode. Balloon Fighter and the enemies can be seen flapping their way through the sky on their balloons. There are also gray pipes which release light blue balloons. Starry skies and buried fossils make the background. The unaltered main theme plays in the background. However, there are occasionally fanfare blasts based on one’s progress. | |||

Puzzle mode presents players with the challenge of clearing all of the blocks already on their screen using only the blocks in their inventory. To succeed players need to think ahead and know how the puzzle will change based on each possible outcome. The Tetriminos can be rotated in any direction before being dropped, but once a location is selected, players cannot manipulate them. However, there is no time limit, so players may think for as long as they need. | Puzzle mode presents players with the challenge of clearing all of the blocks already on their screen using only the blocks in their inventory.

===Mission=== | |||
[[File:Tetris DS Mission Mode.png|thumb|128px|"Holding" blocks is a key strategy in this mode.]] | |||
*'''Play Modes:''' Single player, local multiplayer | |||
*'''Theme:''' ''The Legend of Zelda'' | |||
Unlike Puzzle mode, where the challenge's goal remains the same throughout the game, in Mission mode it changes every time the challenge is met. For example, the game may ask a player to use a square '''''<span style="color:#CC0">O</span>''''' Tetrimino to clear two rows of blocks at once. In this case, the player should line up two horizontal rows of block each eight across, but a space matching the block should be left open. Then, when the desired block begins to fall from the top of the play field, the player should place it so that two complete rows are formed. The challenges get more complex as time passes. In multiplayer mode, players race to see who can clear each mission first. | |||
This mode takes its artistic inspiration from ''The Legend of Zelda''. On the top screen, a waterfall resembling the opening screen of the title flows as a background to the goal. On the bottom screen, an elaborate mountainside fortress serves as the background. In the play field, one can see a series of caves. A sprite of [[Link]], [[Octorok]] or another character from the game appears on the bottom screen based on how far the player has progressed. The sprite has been turned into a flat 3-D object that spins around. A remix of the overworld theme plays in the background. | |||
{{br|right}} | |||
===Catch=== | |||
[[File:Tetris DS Catch Mode.png|thumb|128px|Players control the clump of blocks rather than the falling ones.]] | |||
*'''Play Modes:''' Single player | |||
*'''Theme:''' ''Metroid'' | |||
While the other modes instruct players to drop and adjust blocks into the play field, Catch mode is the only mode players instead control the play field. Boundaries are removed and the field can be moved anywhere in two dimensional space or rotated. Only the descent speed of the Tetriminos can be controlled. As they fall from the top screen to the bottom, players must ram the mass into the blocks to catch them. Players can attach them to on the top, bottom or the sides. If a player allows a Tetrimino to miss, rams into one during a rotation, or makes contact with a Metroid, they will lose energy. The game ends when no energy remains. | |||
The mass contains one flashing block. Players attempt to establish a four by four mass of blocks that includes the flashing one. When this happens, the mass will detonate shortly after, taking all blocks and enemies directly above, below, or to its sides with it. Players also have the option of pressing the X Button to detonate immediately. A new block then begins flashing. Also, some energy is regained though this process. | |||
The mode's visuals imply a mass moving up a large corridor from the original ''Metroid'' game. [[Samus]]'s many sprites can be seen throughout the level, including a cascade of jumping sprites showing how Samus jumps from one ledge to another. Also, enemies from the game serve as hazards. | |||
