Tetris for Kobo Vox and Google Android Tablets SmartPhones


Tetris is a classic game which people played on the PC, game consoles, and older phones. But, Tetris is now available for Google Android Tablets and Smart Phones like the Kobo Vox which uses Google Android as its operating system.

Tetris performs pretty well  on the Kobo Vox. To change the direction of the blocks, I just need to tap on the block. For changing, the location the block will fall on, I just drag the blocks to the left or right of the screen. If I want the blocks to drop faster, I drag the blocks down.

The point of Tetris is to change the direction of the blocks, and to use the blocks to create a continuous line at the bottom of the screen to get rid of the blocks before all the blocks reaches the top of the screen. If the blocks reach the top of the screen, you lose the game. If you can get rid of all the blocks by using them to make a straight horizontal line at the bottom of the screen then you get points, and go to the next level when you earned enough points to go to the next level.

Cut The Rope for Google Android on Kobo Vox Tablet eReader Review

Cut the Rope, is a puzzle game where you have to cut rope, pop bubbles, and other objects, so you can swing a piece of candy safely into a Green monsters mouth.

The game is a casual puzzle game, but it can also be very challenging and hard in the latter levels, and you need to also collect stars with the candy on the rope to unlock new boxes. Some levels require a lot of speed and accuracy when cutting Rope, and popping bubbles.

The 7 inch screen of the Kobo Vox is great for playing Cut The Rope because it is bigger then a SmartPhone, and the color screen is very colorful and bright. The screen sensitivity is also pretty good.

The game is played in vertical/portrait mode, but for some levels like the horizontal levels,  I wish I can play them in horizontal mode, so I can see more of the horizontal width of the level.
The game runs good on the Kobo Vox since the Kobo Vox 800MHz CPU and 512MB of RAM is fast enough to run the game.
