Objective

Stack blocks to form rows as quickly as possible!

If your tower of blocks gets too high, then it will come crashing down, so act fast!

Scoring

Try to beat my high score: 12,783 points

There are two ways to increase your score:

Use fast-drop



Each row you fast drop through gives you 1 point.

If you use fast-drop a lot, you can quickly rack up a lot of points.

Form rows



Each row you clear nets you a base number of points.

If you clear multiple rows at once, you can increase the number of points for each subsequent row.

Playing on a higher level will also give you a higher score every time you form a row.

For example, on level 1 the base score for a row clear is 10. But if you clear 4 rows at once, you'll earn...

(10 * 1) + (10 * 2) + (10 * 3) + (10 * 4) = 10 + 20 + 30 + 40 = 100 points!



If you cleared each row individually, you'd have just earned 40 points from those row clears.

So try to think ahead and find ways to score multiple rows at once to really earn a lot of points!

Save Data

On Windows, your high-score is saved to the file "%LocalAppData%\SIRTET\sirtet_save".

You can move that file outside the directory to reset the high score. You can also just delete it.

The perfect game of Tetris. No big frills, no MTX, no complexity or accounts or online only.
