How to play
The objective is to rotate and position falling tetromino blocks to create complete horizontal lines, which then disappear and award points. The core innovation in The New Tetris is the ability to build 4x4 squares using four smaller blocks - creating these 'Gold Blocks' (perfect 4x4 squares) or 'Silver Blocks' (imperfect squares) earns massive bonus points and can clear multiple lines at once. Focus on planning ahead to create these special squares while maintaining a clean playing field. In tense moments when the blocks stack high, prioritize clearing single lines quickly to create breathing room before attempting complex square-building strategies. The game rewards both speed and strategic planning equally.
