Kevin of Paranerds writes: "I’ve never heard of Tangram, but I have played its style before without knowing I was doing so. Putting shapes together to resemble animals or beings. It’s just something kids do…I think. I don’t know, blocks are fun is what I’m saying. Tangram Attack Isn’t about putting shapes together, it’s about ripping them apart, or slicing them apart I should say. But is it an enjoyable experience?"
Snippet from the review:
Remember how in elementary school you used to get those colorful blocks that were all squares and rhombuses and different sized triangles, and you could use them to make images of cats and houses and people? In Tangram Attack, you get to take all of those little block pictures and DESTROY THEM.
Meaning you get to slice them apart with your sword/3DS stylus. No tangram blocks were harmed in the making of this game.
Slashy fun, but not a perfect slice; those seeking long-term appeal of games like Tetris or even Candy Crush Saga should likely look elsewhere.

Pure Nintendo: "Tangram Attack offers some short-term fun at a wallet friendly price. It’s repetitive however, with some control issues, and design that relies too much on chance over actual skill. I’d rather play a real Tangram game myself, but those looking for something different could certainly do worse than Tangram Attack. If the arcade meets puzzle gameplay sounds appealing to you, give it a download. The $2.99 price is reasonable for what’s offered here, issues and all."
