About this game

XFortress is a very unusual and inventive take on Tetris. The playing field here is represented as a large circle (which is a fortress), in the center of which there is a small circle consisting of balls-segments. New balls of different colors will regularly come from outside the fortress, and the goal will be to complete circles of the same colored balls to make them disappear. The game has three levels of difficulty, which differ in speed, the number of simultaneous balls generation and the length of the chains of segments. There is no clear separation between levels: after you score a certain number of points, the number next to the “level” inscription will change to the next in order, and you will be “attacked” by several long segments from different sides at once, and the next level, a little more difficult, will begin.
