The update also fixes crashes related to Facebook and iPhone 5 and resolves issues concerning Bonus Blitz graphic errors and refresh number. The new version of Tetris Blitz is available now in the App Store for free. The game is compatible with iPhone, iPod touch, and iPad running iOS 5.0 or later. Shortly after its release, Tetris Blitz was hailed by us here at AppAdvice as our Game of the Week. "This isn’t exactly the old-school version of Tetris that you may remember," we noted in our citation. "Nope, this one will only require two minutes of your time at a time. Of course, that two minutes will probably turn into two hours if you’re not careful. Rack and stack up the tetriminos and get as many points as you can in exactly two minutes, and compete with all of your friends!" [gallery link="file" order="DESC"]
