シューティングやアクションがVBに…っていうと何となく想像がつくけど、これが『テトリス』だと?
このVB版『テトリス』はゲーム自体に特別なシカケはなく、モードが1つ増えているほかはこれまでの『テトリス』とルールも遊び方もいっしょ。ブロックを横1列にそろえて消していくだけなのだが、VBならではのモニターに入り込んでしまったような感覚があり、奥行きのある美しい背景を見ながら「やっぱりおもしろいなぁ」と気分も新たにハマってしまうぞ。
A shooter or action game might be something you’d imagine for the VB, but “Tetris”?
This VB version of “Tetris” has no special contrivances in the game itself, apart from having one more mode, so it’s “Tetris” as you know it, with the same rules and gameplay. Thus, you simply erase blocks by aligning them horizontally in a row. However, there is also a sense of being immersed, owing to the VB’s unique monitor. Therefore, as you view the beautiful backgrounds with depth, you just might get hooked on the new feeling and conclude that it’s interesting after all!

落ちてくるブロックを回転させ、う
まく横1列に並べて消していこう
Rotate the falling blocks and skillfully arrange them side-by-side in a row to erase them.

3つのゲームで遊べちゃう
You Can Play Three Types of Games

ゲームが進むうちブロックの落下速度が上がる「タイプA」と、規定のライン数だけ消せばステージクリアの「タイプB」はこれまでどおり。
新たに加えられた「タイプC」は、「A」とルールは同じだけどフィールドにシカケがあるんだ。「C」では奥と手前にフィールドがあり、左右の両端がくっついた状態で横にグルグルと回すことができる。ブロックが落ちてくるのは手前のフィールドだけで、手前のフィールドが横1列に埋まったときしかブロックを消すことができないんだ。
As usual, in “Mode A,” the falling speed of the blocks increases as the game progresses, and in “Mode B,” a stage is cleared by eliminating the specified number of lines.
The newly added “Mode C” has the same rules as “A,” but there is a trick to the field. In “C,” the field has both a front side and a back side, and you can turn the whole field round and round horizontally, with both left and right initial ends being connected together. The blocks only fall in the front side of the field, and blocks can only be eliminated when a horizontal row in the front is completely filled.

ゲームは3種類、BGMは4種類から選べる。
BGMの種類は最初の『テトリス』と同じだ
You can choose from 3 types of games and 4 types of BGM. The types of BGM are the same as the first “Tetris.”
(Translator’s Note: It appears that the music in the pre-release version of V-Tetris, to which the staff for this magazine had access, got changed for the retail version.)
