The brief

Block Drop drops one four-square shape at a time into a well ten squares wide. Slide it, turn it, and set it down. A horizontal row that fills disappears, and everything above it settles. If the stack touches the top, the round is over.

A faint ghost shows where the shape will land if you drop it now. The next-piece box is the planning tool: leave a single column open for the long straight piece, and keep the surface flat so a surprise shape still has a home.

One cleared row scores 100, two score 300, three score 500, and four at once score 800, all multiplied by the level. Every ten rows the level rises and the fall speeds up. P or the Pause button holds the well, and switching tabs pauses it too. The best score stays in this browser.

How to place a shape

Move with the arrows or the on-screen buttons. Up arrow or X rotates, and so does a tap on the board. Down arrow speeds the fall. Space, or a fast swipe down, drops the shape at once.
