Gridz is a video game developed and published by Green Dragon for the Macintosh.

Gameplay

Gridz is a game that is part puzzle and part action game set in an artificial cyber environment.[1]

Reception

Next Generation reviewed the Macintosh version of the game, rating it three stars out of five, and stated that "Gridz is a fun, simple game, but after the sixth or seventh level, it gets a bit redundant. What elevates this game above mediocrity is an unusual clarity of purpose in graphics, control, and design."[1]

The editors of Macworld named Gridz the best arcade game of 1997. Steven Levy and Cameron Crotty of the magazine called the game "addictive" and "maddeningly compelling".[2]
