How to play Block Puzzle
Use a short break to learn the rhythm of Block Puzzle. Place pieces and clear rows/columns until no offered shape fits. Check the relevant rule before repeating a move. Read the objective before making your first input. Choose a clear next step rather than rushing through the instructions.
Place shapes on an 8×8 board and clear full lines. The round ends when none of the current shapes fits.
Build a steady rhythm
Take enough time to read a new position. If a game has a timer, learn its controls first rather than searching for them during the round. Use the example to check your reasoning.
Your goal
Place pieces and clear rows/columns until no offered shape fits. An attractive position is not enough unless the goal is met. Check the rules when you are unsure.
Step by step
- Select a shape.
- Select its top-left board position.
- Clear full rows and columns.
- Use all three offered pieces to receive a new set.
Controls
Select a piece, then a board cell. On a smaller screen, keep the active part of the board within view. Avoid pressing the same control repeatedly while a move is being processed.
A useful example
One placement can clear both a row and a column. Your next round may have a different position, so inspect it before acting. Read the matching step again.
Watch out for this
