Klax World: Klax Downloads & Ports

HTML Template

As you may have guessed, I'm a huge fan of the game. It's hard to find good ports that are still in circulation, (Klax 3d is a Flash version which is just barely able to be called Klax), and so I'm working on a collection of valid Klax downloads.

Gameplay

Klax features a conveyor belt at the top of the screen. It constantly rolls toward the playing area, delivering a steady supply of blocks. In the playing area, blocks can be eliminated by getting three or more "Klaxes" (groups) of the same color in a line. The line may be horizontal, vertical, or diagonal.

Klax History

Inspired by Tic-Tac-Toe, & Tetris, Akers programmed Klax in just a few weeks using Amiga Basic, then ported it line-by-line to C. In a 1990 interview, he said he wanted to "produce something playable, compact and relatively quick to develop." The name was chosen for the sound the tiles make as they come down the conveyor belt.
