When indie game developers Alexey and Markus are in trouble, their only hope comes from their creation.
You are the Tetrobot: a tiny robot that can drill blocks of matter one by one, collect them, and recycle them into new pieces of 4 blocks. You also have the possibility to destroy lines of 8+ blocks in a very «retro russian» game style.
Sand, wood, stone, obsidian, iron, diamond: each matter has its specific behaviour you'll have to use wisely and take advantage of them. So get ready to use your brain and combine your platforming and puzzle-solving skills in this incredible mashup!
Key features:
- A unique gameplay experience mixing puzzle and platform that will challenge your brain
- 40 levels to play in Adventure Mode, 20 bonus levels to unlock and more free content to come
- Collect every 40 "Blocks That Matter" and rediscover videogames made of blocks that made or will make History
- Create and share your own puzzles using an easy-to-use level editor

BTM is a great little
BTM is a great little puzzler. The platforming is okay, but the puzzle-solving is great. I like to sit down for 10 minutes every now and then just to hit a level. Most of the puzzles can be solved in an open fashion, but there are a handful of frustrating puzzles that can only be solved a specific way. I hate those.
Still, BTM is great fun and has a nice, quirky attitude and feel.
