I'm not sure why the FILE_ID.DIZ emphasizes the real nice sounds so much. There's not much to them. What is nice are the graphics, especially the loading and menu screens that seem to belong to an Amiga shoot-'em-up rather than to a PC Tetris clone.

Gameplay is alright. There are no fancy non-tetramino pieces (I see that as an asset), but there are bombs, and when you level up, a sort of blind comes down and you start anew, with some obstacles in the well. Gameplay graphics are good too, they do not distract, only when you get a Quadroïd (clear four rows in one) the background becomes animated, and the pieces are color-coded.

Though there is no music—which you'd half expect from a game like this—Quadroïd takes up quite a bit of harddrive space. But then, French games tend to. That's really the most interesting aspect of the game, that it's from France, where Tetris was never very popular with programmers. Currently, it's the oldest French Tetris in my collection!
