Groups > Tetris variants

Tetris was the original falling block puzzle game and therefore any such game can be considered a variant of Tetris. However, this group is only for game directly based on the original Tetris concept. To be included the falling blocks have to be polyominoes of various shapes (this excludes games like Columns where all blocks have the same shape) which can be rotated. In Tetris each polymino consists of four squares but some variants have more or less. The objective of Tetris variants is to clear lines and therefore games where the goal is to match blocks of different colours are excluded.
