Read full description

The block arcade just as it played in the arcades: relentless gravity, one-way rotation, and every line counts. TETRA·88 brings back the feel of the 1988 classic and turns it into a journey through levels: clear each stage, keep your progress, and unlock tougher difficulties. • 99 levels with surprises: preset boards, loose falling blocks, rows rising from below… • Physics true to the arcade: exact speed, scoring and low-well bonus • 3 difficulties: Normal, Hard and Extreme • 9 piece styles: Neon, Classic arcade, Game Boy, Crystal and more • Chiptune sound and music straight out of an arcade board • Play with buttons or gestures: swipe to move, tap to rotate, flick down to drop • No ads, no subscriptions, no internet needed. Try 5 levels for free and unlock the full game with a single one-time purchase. Can you make it to level 99?

Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is ads: Tetra88 at none against Matexo's shown. Tetra88 also leads on update cadence (every 4 days vs every 2 months). Matexo's advantage is device support (3 vs 1) and iOS requirement (11.0 vs 18.6). On price and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.
