Trilinea React comes to us all the way from Tendi in Brazil. The long journey was certainly worth it as the game is one of the larger games I’ve seen in the XBLIG titles I have played. I’m not taking anything away from the others but this game has the feel of an XBLA title.

The game find you dropping two-block combos in order to match three or more of the same color. At the same time the game is controlling an opponent who is attempting to do the same thing. Making matches injures your opponent with the goal of knocking them out of the game before they do the same to you.

There are a couple ways to play the game including:

  • Challenges - Attain specific goals before your opponent does.
  • Score Attack - Score as many points as you can in the time allowed.
  • Time Attack - Clear a specific goal in as little time as you can.
  • Quick Match - Duel and Mission mode. Duel is knock the opponent out, mission is attaining various goals first.

Trilinea React Missions include:

  • Destroy X blocks
  • Destroy X blocks of a specific color
  • Make a 2X / 3X / 4X combo
  • Simultaneously destroy X blocks
  • Rapidly place 15 / 25 / 35 blocks
  • Race to destroy 1 / 3 / 5 flashing blocks
  • Clear your side of the board more than the opponent

So you can see there was a lot of thought put into the game and the modes by this team.

 Our Rating for Trilinea React Review (Xbox Live Indie)
7.5
Replay
Getting all the stars requires playing all the levels on hard. Getting all the awards means playing a lot and playing well. Both are good reasons to go back to the game.
8.5
Graphics
The graphics are cool and rival those of some XBLA titles. They’re not the best ever, but are great for the game.
8.5
Sound
The same goes for the sound. Not the best ever, but very good for the game and the music doesn’t get annoying.
9.0
Gameplay
Lots of good color-block match-three gameplay here with interesting spells and some unique features.
8.5
Multiplayer/Online Content
Three modes both local and online. It’s just hard to find anyone to play against online (if you’ve got the game and want some online opponent invite TheSuperGuido, that is my Gamertag).
9.0
Overall
With almost no flaws, loads of gameplay elements and levels this really is a great $5 investment. If you haven’t tried any of the XBLIG titles yet, this is a good place to start if you like block-dropping match-three games.
