How to play
First of all we need to give you key mapping for playing. You can play
the game only with keyboard, not mouse. The driving is very simple:
- Moving figure around the walls (left and right):
- Arrow (left and right) keys
- Keypad "4" and keypad "6" keys (keypad arrows)
- Key "J" and key "L" on the main keyboard
- Rotating figure:
- Arrow (up and down) keys
- Keypad "5" key
- Key "K" on the main keyboard
- Dropping down figure:
- Space key
- Keypad "Insert" key
- Setting/Unsetting Pause:
- Pause key
- Key "P" on the main keyboard
- Exiting the game:
- Escape key
- Key "Q" on the main keyboard
Now, let's say a couple of words of playing this game. Take
a look at the picture of the game area:
|
Flat 2D figures are falling down (yellow arrow) from four walls to the
bottom one by one. You can move them left/right around the walls or rotate them
(white arrows). If the figure is on the bottom, but still moving you
can only rotate it, not move. The figure stops its moving when it
touch another figure on the bottom or on the wall.
|
You task is to form vertical or horizontal lines of pieces without the
holes. After you form that line, it dissapears and clean the part of
the bottom. You earn scores and receive additonal space to continue the game.
|
Here you can see full formed vertical line (1) and horizontal line
(2). Note: The more formed lines at a time the more scores you
have. For example if you drop down figure and form only one line -
you receive 10 scores, two lines at a time give you 80 scores, three
lines 270 scores and so on. Keep this feature in mind.
|
If you can't place the whole figure on the bottom, and part of it
stays on the wall, such wall became frozen (red on the picture) for
some time out. Time out expires - wall unfreezes and figure falling
down to the bottom if there are empty space under it.
|
You can even freeze two walls at a time if your figure stays on both
(in the corner) when it stops its moving. You are warned :)
|
You can save space on the bottom when you cut figures. For cutting you
need to place figure in the corner on two walls at a time. At the
bottom one part of figure will move to one direction and another part
to other one :).
 |
Parts of the figure move synchroniously. If one part touch figure on
the bottom or edge, it stays and second part of figure stays too, even it is
not touching any figures.
