How to Play
In Tetris, use arrow keys, WASD, or swipe gestures to move and rotate falling tetrominoes (L, J, T, O, I, S, Z shapes) on a 10x20 grid. Press the down arrow or swipe down to speed up a block’s descent, and use the up arrow or tap to rotate it. Press the spacebar or a designated button to drop the block instantly. Arrange blocks to form complete horizontal lines, which clear for points; clearing multiple lines at once (e.g., a Tetris with four lines) earns bonus points. Use the hold feature (C key or button) to save a block for later use. Daily challenges introduce special objectives, like clearing 20 lines with only I-shapes, rewarding you with exclusive themes. Your high score autosaves, letting you retry to improve. Plan your stack to keep the grid open and avoid topping out.
