Kyobi is a new physics-based puzzle game from Photon Storm that is best described as a cross between Columns, Tetris and a Match-3, but with a “big fat dose of physics thrown in for good measure.

As the blocks drop you can grab them with the mouse, and fling them around. Match 3 or more of the same colour and they all explode in a shower of particles.

Throw them together with real force and you’ll shake the screen and score bigger points. Chain combos can be obtained by smashing lots of colors one after the other within a set time.”

“I am really pleased with how this game plays. I spent a lot of evenings working on tweaking the difficulty, so the first 20 levels guide you through the game. The pace ebbs and flows gracefully. After a really hectic level with 6 blocks falling every couple of seconds, the next level can often be far more sedate with a slow trickle to give you a breather” the author said.

Kyobi features 40 levels in total and becomes addictive very quickly. Some players may find the gameplay repetitive after a while, but all in all, I love this game!

Have fun!
