Tetris
Tetris is a browser-based puzzle game that focuses on spatial reasoning and fast decision-making as players arrange falling blocks to complete horizontal lines. The game drops differently shaped tetrominoes from the top of the screen, and the player rotates and positions each piece before it lands. Completing a full line clears it from the grid and awards points, while increasing speed steadily raises the challenge. The objective centers on managing limited space, anticipating upcoming pieces, and preventing the stack from reaching the top. Each placement affects future options, so players must plan several moves ahead while reacting quickly. The scoring system rewards efficient clears and sustained survival. As the pace accelerates, mistakes become harder to correct, pushing players to balance speed with precision. Tetris maintains continuous engagement through escalating difficulty and simple rules, similar in logic-driven play to classic puzzle titles like 2048.

How to Play
The game begins with an empty grid and a single falling tetromino. You control the piece as it descends, rotating and shifting it to fit available spaces. Once the piece lands, it locks into place and a new shape appears at the top. Completing a full horizontal row clears that line and opens space for future pieces. As you clear more lines, the game gradually increases speed, reducing reaction time. You must constantly evaluate gaps, avoid uneven stacks, and prepare for upcoming shapes. Poor placement limits movement and accelerates failure. The session ends when pieces stack to the top and no placement remains possible. Progress depends on consistent line clearing, efficient space management, and adapting quickly as the game accelerates.
