Downfall (for Mac OS X) Editor's Review

'Downfall' is a falling block game that features multiple game modes and maps.

The purpose of this game is to create color combinations with the blocks. When three or more blocks have the same color, they are removed from the game.

The game gets a little harder, when it gives you blocks that can't be removed by using color combination. However, you can destroy them with exploding blocks, when the game gives you some.

Downfall also gives you the possibility to choose the game type and the board. The software in this package is a trial version and most of the maps are locked. When you purchase a license, the application gets unlocked and it gives you full access to all of the game's features.

The speed of the falling blocks can be controlled from the preferences tab. You can use a setting that matches your own needs.

The game doesn't use many resources. In fact, it's a fast application and the main menu has a button that can minimize the game and allow you to do something else, if you want to.

Pluses: it gives you multiple game modes and maps.

Drawbacks / flaws: sometimes the game gives you too many indestructible blocks and this can be pretty annoying.

In conclusion: it's quite a nice game. If you like playing games with falling blocks, then you might find this interesting.
