An enhanced version of the original 1984 Russian puzzle game. This game was ported to IBM PC in 1986 and is the first tetris game in full color. You goal in this game is to land various shapes on the bottom surface and land the others down to fit the empty spaces. You can use your keyboard to rotate, move, and drop the blocks into the position of the of the space as they fall. When you successfully complete a line by filling all empty spaces, the line or row disappears making more room for more spaces for the pieces to land. The faster you go, the higher your score, The speed of the falling blocks increases as you reach higher levels. The shapes of the blocks appear randomly so the game is different each time you play.

Played and recorded in Dosbox 0.74.
