3D-LomTris is a tetris style game much like Welltris. You have 3 dimensional pieces falling from the top of the box and the object of the game is to flip and rotate the pieces so that you form a solid flat layer. When a solid layer is formed it is removed. To help determine the layer you are on the pieces are a different color for each layer.

The falling pieces are just outlines and for me that made it difficult to see which way the block was flipped but I got better at it the more I played. The controls are kind of difficult to until you get used to them you use control cursor to rotate the piece and shift cursor to flip it. You can use the arrow keys in place of the cursor. The other keys aren't that hard but this game definitely requires 2 hands. All in all the longer I played the more I liked the game.

This game requires DirectX to play it. There is a network game possible where you can play with others and that is always a plus. The shareware version only allows you to play 2 levels by yourself and when networking. If you are looking for a challenging game that grows on you the more you play then you should check it out.
