Is it still worth playing?

Monstars and Resonair's 2018 block dropping puzzle game for the PlayStation 4, with PlayStation VR support, directed by Tetsuya Mizuguchi. You place tetrominoes to clear lines, and the gameplay is tied to the beat of the music. The Zone mechanic lets you stop time and clear more than four lines at once. There are over 30 stages, each with its own music, sound effects and visual style, and Journey mode builds each level around a song. Marathon, Sprint and Ultra return, Theater Mode plays levels passively, and the original release is single player. Rotating, clearing and scoring trigger audio cues, and the music sets the pace of the falling pieces, so learning how each song changes the pace still gives every stage a rhythm to master today.
