The premise, in the publisher's words
Match blocks as fast as you can in this PC port of a console classic. This 2021 game for the original 1981 IBM PC runs in full color (all 16 of them) and high resolution (320x200) thanks to intense abuse of the Color Graphics Adapter's 40-column text mode. Responsive gameplay, even at 4.77 MHz. Music and sound effects, even with a simple buzzer. The only PCs this won't kick ass on did not have graphics.
How it plays
It is a single-player game with no multiplayer component.
