IDOL TOWER Lite is a game that is similar to the game called Columns where you have three different blocks of either the same or different colors and match at least three of the same colors to take them away from the board. This game includes some hidden achievements, a table of best players, 4 worlds, from the wreck of the ship to the golden city, and 3 different types of joypad controls.
