How to play Block Puzzle
Choose a round of Block Puzzle and settle into its rules. Place pieces and clear rows/columns until no offered shape fits. Choose a clear next step rather than rushing through the instructions. Begin with the solo mode shown on the page. Check the relevant rule before repeating a move.
Place shapes on an 8×8 board and clear full lines. The round ends when none of the current shapes fits.
Keep the aim in sight
Keep the stated aim separate from side details such as animation or appearance. Progress is measured by the game’s own completion or scoring rules. Refer to the controls when needed.
Your goal

Controls

A useful example

Watch out for this
Pieces cannot rotate in this edition. Take a moment to reassess the position before continuing. Before your first action, say what you are trying to achieve. Then compare the result with the goal.
