Klax

Released in 1990 by Atari (distributed in Japan by Namco), *Klax* is a real-time puzzle game that showcases the unique ingenuity of the Atari label. Players use a paddle to catch tiles flowing from the back of the screen and stack them into bins in the foreground, aiming to clear them by aligning three of the same color horizontally, vertically, or diagonally. While intuitive, the game’s appeal lies in the strategic maneuvers required, such as accelerating the tiles or tossing them back. With the high-stakes rule that missing a tile results in a penalty, the game demands a high level of concentration from the player.
