Everyone loves puzzles, and this game takes the idea of doing a puzzle and adds a timed element, as well as fuels the competitive nature in people.

– Players strategically drop different shaped blocks into the entirety of the playing area.
– Players attempt to clear as many lines as possible by completing horizontal rows of blocks without any empty space.
– As players scores increase, so does the speed of the falling blocks.

There is a field of play in which pieces of different geometric forms descend from the top of the screen. During this descent, the player can move the pieces from left to right and rotate them until they touch the bottom of the screen or land on a piece that had been placed before it. The player can neither slow down the falling pieces nor stop them, but can accelerate them. The objective of the game is to use the pieces to create as many horizontal lines of blocks as possible. When a line is completed, it disappears, and the blocks placed above fall one down one row. The player can clear multiple lines at once, which can earn bonus points. If the player cannot make the blocks disappear quickly enough, the screen will start to fill, and when the pieces reach the top of the screen and prevent additional pieces from falling, the game ends.
