Lumines is not much of a game when you played it for a long time, it is more an experimental and wonderful journey in rooms of music, sound and lights. If you're expecting a different experience from the PSP, that's the best game to buy.

If you're a Tetris fan, it should work fine with you, there's the need for sharp eye and reflexes, addiction beyond word, and constant will to improve your score.

If you're not, play it anyhow. Just don't try to beat the game. Download a save and enjoy the magic of some levels (I'm thinking Lights and Flowers, but you're sure to find your way in the multiple and very different kinds of atmospheres of the game).

As a matter of fact, Lumines has a very serious flaw, the kind that makes you hate a game you love. A medium single play for a trained but not skilled player, will last about an hour. A real challenger can play up to two hours before he loses. It seems a very very excessive amount of time for a portable game, unless you're in a real long trip!

2 hours is when you take advantage of the sleep function and play it whenever you get a chance.
