Box Art Brawl – Duel: Hatris

Be sure to cast your votes in the poll below; but first, let’s look at the box designs themselves.

If there’s one thing that sets the North American version of Hatris apart, it’s the color. Or more precisely the lack of color. It’s a really odd setup, as the title itself is kind of hidden at the top of the composition, while the rest of the image is made up of different hats on a tiled background. Granted, it’s a strong representation of the actual gameplay in Hatris, mind you.

Japan’s approach is much more colorful and we like that. It’s one of those pictures where at first it looks like there are only a few hats, but then you see another, and another, and another, until they’re everywhere. Very cool stuff.


Thanks for voting! See you next time for another round of Box Art Brawl.
