Meteos (Japanese: メテオス (Meteosu)) is an action puzzle video game for the Nintendo DS portable gaming system. The name of the game comes from the Japanese word "meteo", meaning and borrowed from the English word meteor. Meteos was developed by Q Entertainment and published by Bandai. The producer for the game was Tetsuya Mizuguchi and lead designer was Masahiro Sakurai. The game was released in Japan on March 10, 2005. The US release date was June 27, 2005.
Meteos has received very favorable reviews and previews (for example, this GameSpot review). Meteos is often compared to Lumines, a game for PlayStation Portable by the same developer. In general, Meteos relies heavily on speed and reflexes, while Lumines relies heavily on rhythm and concentration. Though both games feature colorful falling blocks, their gameplay is hardly alike.
On September 7, 2005 mobile gamemaker Gameloft announced that they would be bringing both Meteos and Lumines to cell phones. Also, on April 26, 2006, Buena Vista Games announced they would be publishing Meteos: Disney Edition.
