The object of the game deceptively simple and completely addictive. The player must position falling shapes called Tetris Blocks across the bottom of a rectangular pit. When an entire horizontal line fills with blocks, the line clears from the screen and the player earns points. If lines are not completely filled with blocks, they will not clear from the screen, and the Tetris Blocks will continue to stack up higher and higher. If the stack of Tetris Blocks reaches the top, the game is over. But if the player keeps clearing lines, game play continues at a faster and faster pace with more and more points earned for cleared lines.
