Polarium ( in Japan) is a puzzle game developed by Mitchell Corporation for the Nintendo DS. In the game, players use a stylus to draw lines on the DS's touch screen, flipping black and white tiles to clear puzzles.

Game modes


  • Challenge: Blocks of tiles continuously fall from above. Players must rapidly clear tiles by drawing lines to create horizontal rows of the same color. The game is over when the blocks of tiles reach the top of the top-screen. The mode becomes increasingly difficult for every 100 lines that are cleared, and the game is ended when 1,000 lines are cleared. Players can practice this mode, with the ability to choose if they start from 100 lines cleared, 200 lines, 300 lines, etc.
  • Puzzle: Players must figure out how to clear complex puzzles in one continuous stroke. Players are challenged to clear 100 included puzzles or create their own custom puzzles. Numerical passwords to these puzzles can be generated and swapped with friends. Once all the puzzles are cleared a smiley face appears on both screens, flipping from black to white with text announcing that all 100 puzzles, and the credits are unlocked.
  • Versus: Compete against friends to clear puzzles. As lines are cleared, they'll appear on the foe's screen. Flip the opponent's tiles, earn power-ups, block their border tiles, and more.
  • Lounge: The place to access tutorials, manage game preferences, and wirelessly sync with other players to exchange custom puzzles. Players can also view the credits once they have been unlocked.

Demo version
