The upper-right chevron is further away and red; the other three are black."></p> <p>The usual action-puzzle title, hopelessly indebted to <em>Tetris</em>, builds upon a grid-based playfield with game elements falling from the ceiling; <em>Digidrive</em> ignores this, with elements appearing at four points and drifting smoothly down two perpendicular lanes. <sup id="fnref:1"><a href="#fn:1" class="footnote-ref" role="doc-noteref">1</a></sup> These elements, of three colors, are abstract vehicles crossing through an intersection, where the player redirects them using the d-pad. These cars stop once they reach a spawn point and stack with like colors; if a different color approaches, the cars previously stationed there will reverse course and return to the intersection. Stacking five cars at a spawn transforms it into a fuel cell for that color, although it disappears if not supplied regularly with more cars of the correct type, the timer for which inversely scales with the amount of fuel.</p>
