Game Introduction

Single mode

A fast-paced block placement game
You have a 5x5 grid
You must place pieces in that grid
You score by clearing lines, horizontally or vertically
You can rotate pieces
You can store a single piece to come back to later
The more lines you clear in one go, the more points you get
Every piece that you play that clears at least one line increases your score multiplier
As your score goes up, so does your level, and you get less time to think
If you fail to place a block, you lose a life
Lose 3 lives, and you’re out of the game
The score is stored locally and the top ten list is refreshed if there is a new record on the server
