Block Fall

How to play

Shapes drop one at a time. Keyboard: arrow keys to move and soft-drop, Up to rotate, Space hard-drop. On the board: tap the falling shape to rotate; press and hold on it, then drag sideways to slide columns or drag downward to soft-drop quickly. Fill a whole row to clear it. Each round asks you to clear a quota of lines — hitting it advances the round and speeds up gravity.

Tips & strategy

Watch the Round counter (lines cleared toward the next wave). Rotate before the wall blocks kicks. Soft-drop for precision rather than spamming hard-drop. As rounds climb, save vertical space by clearing doubles and triples before the stack gets tall.

Good for

• Classic block-drop arcade feel, rebuilt from scratch.
• Touch-first: tap to spin, hold-drag to position.
• Escalating rounds for longer sessions.

Frequently asked questions

Does the game get harder?

Yes. Each round requires you to clear a quota of lines; after that, gravity gets faster. Your level (and score multiplier) rises with the round.

How do I rotate on a phone?

Tap directly on the falling blocks. To drag left, right, or down, press and hold on the piece for a fraction of a second, then drag. You can still use the on-screen buttons.
