Learn your way around Block Puzzle

Start Block Puzzle by looking at the playing area and its controls. Place pieces and clear rows/columns until no offered shape fits. Use the example below to understand a decision. Check the rule that explains your first action. Choose a clear next step rather than rushing through the instructions.

Place shapes on an 8×8 board and clear full lines. The round ends when none of the current shapes fits.

One thing to notice as you play

Take enough time to read a new position. If a game has a timer, learn its controls first rather than searching for them during the round. Notice the feedback after each input.

The goal to keep in mind

Place pieces and clear rows/columns until no offered shape fits. An attractive position is not enough unless the goal is met. The example below illustrates a decision.

The steps to play

  1. Select a shape.
  2. Select its top-left board position.
  3. Clear full rows and columns.
  4. Use all three offered pieces to receive a new set.

Input guidance

Select a piece, then a board cell. Read a button’s label before selecting it. A new-round button replaces the current round.

Learn from a sample situation

One placement can clear both a row and a column. Apply the same reasoning to the position in your own round. Take a moment to compare.

Check this before moving on

Pieces cannot rotate in this edition. Compare the situation with the worked example. Take enough time to read a new position. If a game has a timer, learn its controls first rather than searching for them during the round.
