How to play Block Puzzle

Open Block Puzzle, check the instructions and begin a round. Place pieces and clear rows/columns until no offered shape fits. Keep the game area visible while you use its controls. Keep the instructions close while learning this activity. Look at what changes after your first action.

Place shapes on an 8×8 board and clear full lines. The round ends when none of the current shapes fits.

Notice the feedback

Watch the feedback after an action. A message can explain whether the input was accepted or whether a rule needs attention. Refer to the controls when needed.

Your goal

Place pieces and clear rows/columns until no offered shape fits. An attractive position is not enough unless the goal is met. Try to explain the aim in your own words.

Step by step

  1. Select a shape.
  2. Select its top-left board position.
  3. Clear full rows and columns.
  4. Use all three offered pieces to receive a new set.

Controls

Select a piece, then a board cell. Read a button’s label before selecting it. Use one clear input at a time.

A useful example

One placement can clear both a row and a column. Use the example as a guide rather than a substitute for reading your board. Consider the next action carefully.

Watch out for this

Pieces cannot rotate in this edition. Compare the situation with the worked example. After a move, check what changed. Decide which rule explains the new state before acting again.
