### 5/5 — Fun puzzler

*2016-03-05*

Kind of a simplified Tetris. Very enjoyable

### 5/5 — Super game

*2016-02-28*

The best iOS game ever! Super addictive.

### 5/5 — Great concept

*2016-02-28*

This feels like a mix of a few other games, but it's also it's own thing. I love the turn-based gameplay, gives you time to think (but there's also a time-based mode if you'd prefer that).

### 5/5 — Entertaining

*2015-12-20*

Fun A+++++

### 5/5 — Slydris

*2015-04-05*

Perfect.
Needs iPhone 6 update.

### 5/5 — 名作

*2015-02-10*

PC版の頃からやっているお気に入りのパズルゲームの一つ。
オリジナリティに溢れるゲームシステムで、上から落ちてくる（あるいは下から湧き上がってくる）棒を左右にスライドさせて横一列に並べると消える仕組み。
割とゲームバランスは良く、よく考えながら積んでいくと、一見打開できないような状況でも大量コンボのチャンスになることがしばしばある。その時の爽快感はなかなか言い知れないものがあるので是非体験してみてほしい。
Q-entertainmentのLUMINESに影響されたかのような美しいネオン光がいい雰囲気を出していて、音楽も相まって独特の世界観が演出されているように思う。
日本では知名度が低く脚光を浴びてはいないが、よく作り込まれた素晴らしい作品なのでRadianGamesにはこれからも頑張っていただきたい。

### 5/5 — Challenging

*2015-01-01*

I enjoy playing slydris and find it quite challenging

### 5/5 — Awesome

*2014-12-24*

AAADDDIIICCCTTTIIINNNGGG!!!

### 5/5 — Perfectris

*2014-11-23*

Still playing this game pretty much every day after 2 years. No other game compares for complexity, addictiveness, capsule experience, and requiring the user to be in a state of "flow" to succeed. 

Also you can see the game as a metaphor for life. Things keep being thrown at you, and you have to balance dealing with urgent versus strategic issues. If you neglect one or the other, problems will accumulate. Go with the flow!

### 5/5 — NYTE 45

*2014-10-26*

Very addictive game , very entertaining.

### 5/5 — おもろい

*2014-07-03*

地道におもろい

### 5/5 — Awesome

*2014-04-19*

One of the most addictive games I ever played.

### 5/5 — Love it

*2014-04-18, version 1.13*

Games good music good. Like a peaceful game play. 5 stars :)

### 5/5 — Not just addicting ... Fabulous fun.

*2014-04-17*

I rarely play games like this. Just can't seem to enjoy myself. I envied people who seemed glued to their screens, lost in the act of playing a simple game.

Then I found this! If I hadn't had this on my iPad mini while sitting in the ER waiting for a friend to finish X-rays and tests, I would have lost my mind! Great app. Grab it and also get Luke's other games. Nice work, great game.

### 4/5 — Dangerously addictive

*2014-03-12*

Challenging. Engaging. Although a puzzle mode would probably be a worthy upgrade to the game to assist users in being more precise and intent in their movements to develop techniques. Zen mode is a great way to start off. The short tutorial and the progressive tutorials are fruitful, especially as reminders of the complexities of the game. No debugging problems. Very direct instructions

### 4/5 — My latest favorite game

*2014-01-28*

Can be relaxing, can be played for short periods if wanted, requires some reasoning and it's possible to improve -- all things that make a good puzzle game. My only beef is that when I finally fail to clear the blocks, it shows my final score, but not the level I was able to reach. And there are no historical scores that show me what I just did, achieved or didn't achieve.

## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated)

### 1/5 — Won’t work in iOS.

*2017-09-25*

Title says all.  Love it on Kindle, but I retired the Kindle. No go on iPad.

### 1/5 — slydris

*2013-01-13, version 1.11*

App gets stuck on 6th level.  Very disappointed.

### 1/5 — I don't get the love

*2012-08-20*

Sorry but compared to masterpieces like Drop7 and Linkem this is just plain dull. Really don't understand the praise!

### 2/5 — UNDO BUTTON

*2018-03-15*

Hey idiots! Put a #*~¥$&@ undo button in your game!!!!

### 3/5 — Ads! In a paid app?

*2014-06-14*

I prefer to pay for apps so I do not have to deal with ads. I have no freemium apps on my ipad. I never had an ad in Slydris until today. Bye bye 5 stars and wecolme 3 star rating. Get rid of pop up ads and I'll upgrade you back to 5 stars.

It sure is depressing seeing what is happening to the App Store. Paid apps going rogue, freemium taking over, greed, greed, greed.

### 3/5 — Very Disappointing

*2013-12-18*

Excellent game with strategic as well as tactical aspects.

BUT it doesn't preserve your levels of achievement. You work like crazy to achieve level 23, say, and when you log back in you're on level 19.

Come on, guys, get it right! At the very least, provide an explicit 'save' option that works!

### 3/5 — Could be great but imprecise controls make it mediocre

*2013-08-16, version 1.12*

Like most games of this type as the speed ramps up the controls become less predictable. Pretty fun on the lower levels though.

### 3/5 — Geht so

*2012-08-10*

Wie alle Radiangames Spiele perfekt aber dennoch ist das Spiel für mich ein Fehlkauf.
Da das Spiel ist für meinen Geschmack, doch ziemlich langweilig ist, spiele ich dann doch lieber Tetris.

### 3/5 — Meh

*2012-07-27*

When Radiangames comes out with a new game I buy it without hesitation - definitely my favorite iOS game studio. 

In this game you slide blocks and drop them into place.  Kind of reminds me of Drop7, but with far less strategy.  

It's a well-made game, but extremely annoying and unforgiving.  You only get one move before the next line of blocks fall, and just when you're doing good a line of blocks will pop up at the bottom and mess you up.  

This game is less about strategy and more about randomness and luck.  Luck and randomness would be fine if the game weren't so unforgiving - after I'm done playing it just feels like I've been beat up just for spite, which totally makes you forget about the couple good moves you just made. 

Kinda fun while playing, but you'll forget the fun parts and remember the frustrating parts.  3 stars for graphics and working mechanics, -2 stars for lack of fun and frustration at the illusion of strategy.

### 4/5 — Tetris revamp+

*2016-03-26*

This is a reasonable revamp of the old Tetris. Lots of surprises keep you guessing on a winning strategy. It's good.

### 5/5 — One of the App Store greats

*2023-04-15*

Possibly one of the best time-sinks on the platform, one of the greatest arcade-puzzlers ever.

### 5/5 — Офигенная игра!

*2020-09-05*

Наиграл уже часов 50, без шуток. Очень классная игра!!!

### 5/5 — Best game ever

*2020-05-30*

Great game idea. Nothing beats this game in my opinion. The time when IOS was converted to 64 bit, Slydris was not usable for a period of time. I found no alternative in this time and I was very glad that Slydris were also converted in the end. So please keep it alive for a looooooooong time...

### 5/5 — Супер!

*2019-02-17*

Очень нравится игра, хотя уже играю месяца 2. Очень релаксирующая в режиме Zen) 
Благодарю разработчиков!

### 5/5 — Шикарная игра

*2018-11-15*

Залип где-то на час или больше и с трудом вылез из игры. В игре очень затягивающий геймплей, саундтрек и графика. 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻

### 5/5 — It's a brilliant game!!!!

*2017-09-28*

Such a brilliant game! I really mean it. Sometimes you need a bit of luck as in any game. I have been playing for years and I am so happy the 64 bits version is now available. When I play I always start from level 30... I can understand the game might not be for everybody but when you understand the mechanics of it you will really enjoy it. Get it and thanks me later.

### 5/5 — Thanks for 64Bit update

*2017-09-27*

Thank you for the update, I was fearing to loose this game when installing iOS11. I love this game and   during endless hours on airports I played a it lot. Really enjoying and relaxing .

### 5/5 — Fantastic

*2017-09-27*

One of my favourite iOS games. So happy to see an iOS 11 update - thought I’d lost this forever.

### 5/5 — Simple but Addictive

*2016-10-27*

One of the best games I have ever played!

### 5/5 — Addictive

*2016-03-06*

Very addictive
