How to play
- Drag a piece. Three pieces wait in the tray under the board. Press one and drag it onto the grid; it lands where every one of its blocks has an empty cell. Pieces never rotate.
- Clear lines. When a row or a column is full, it clears. Rows and columns clear together, so one piece can finish both.
- Keep going. Once all three pieces are down, three new ones arrive. When nothing left in the tray fits anywhere, the game is over and your score is final.
One block, two lines: a double, worth 310 points.

Scoring
Every block you place scores 10. Clearing lines pays by how many go at once: one line 100, two 300, three 500, and four or more 800. A row and a column count as two lines even when they share a cell.
Clear on back-to-back drops and you build a streak: the second clear in a row adds 50, the third 100, and so on. A drop that clears nothing ends the streak. Your best score is kept in this browser and shown above the board.
When the game ends
There’s no timer and no lives: the tray is the clock. A piece that can’t fit anywhere is dimmed in the tray, and once none of the pieces left can fit, the game ends with your final score. Hit Play again for a fresh board.
Tips
- Don’t wall in holes. A single empty cell boxed in on all sides can only take a single block.
- Plan all three. Find a home for every piece in the tray before placing the first.
- Leave room for the big ones. Keep an open 3×3 patch and a five-long lane for the awkward pieces.
