Tetris x Jenga Mashup on Hoverboard Looks Excitingly Tough
Feb 17, 2014 19:54
Tetris and Jenga can be incredibly challenging in their own rights, but ThinkGeek mashed the two up to create a new game that has you stacking 3D tetromino-like pieces on a game board that hovers.
The Hoverkraft Levitating Construction Challenge will only be available later in the year, but it already looks like the perfect game for the family to rip each other apart during the holidays. The pieces work by way of magnets, while the support structure for your tower floats above the game's base. So not only does every piece have to be perfectly balanced, the entire tower does too or it'll come crashing down.
Unsurprisingly, the game only lasts about five minutes for most skilled players. But you can adjust the strength of the tower's support to make it less prone to toppling for amateurs.
