Classic Tetris
The original falling blocks, with keyboard control and line-based scoring.
Scoring system
One line is worth little. Four at once is worth far more, and that changes how you play: the goal stops being clearing constantly and becomes stacking the whole tower.
| Lines | Points |
|---|---|
| 1 | 100 |
| 2 | 300 |
| 3 | 500 |
| 4 | 800 |
Where most people slip
Leaving gaps along the bottom is what costs the most. Clearing the lowest line first always leaves you more options later.
Note
The stick-shaped piece solves a single line and is the hardest to fit later on.
