Tetris is the legendary puzzle game that has defined the genre for over four decades! Guide falling tetrominos (geometric shapes made of four blocks) as they descend, rotating and positioning them to create complete horizontal lines. When a line is complete, it disappears, scoring points and making room for more pieces. As the game progresses, the pieces fall faster, testing your reflexes, spatial reasoning, and strategic planning. From its Soviet origins in 1984 to its status as a global cultural phenomenon, Tetris remains the gold standard of puzzle gaming.
Survive as long as possible by clearing horizontal lines to prevent the stack from reaching the top. Score points by clearing multiple lines at once—especially the coveted four-line 'Tetris'. Challenge yourself to beat your high score and improve your speed and accuracy.
Use arrow keys to move and rotate falling blocks. Left/Right to move, Up to rotate, Down to soft drop. Complete horizontal lines are cleared. The game speeds up as you progress.
← → Arrow keys move pieces left/right. ↑ Arrow rotates clockwise. ↓ Arrow soft drops (faster fall). Space bar hard drops (instant placement). Hold key stores a piece for later use.
