« Les règles sont un peu étrange mais la prise en main est facile, et les musiques ont une plus grande variété par rapport à tetris effect. Vraiment un bon moment passé à faire l'aventure. »

« Rien que pour l’OST, je signe. Lumines était déjà excellent, mais mélangé à l’approche "sensorielle" de Tetris Effect, ça devient une dinguerie. Tout est à fond, parfois déroutant… mais tellement bon. Jouissif. Intense. Addictif. BRAVO 👏 »
