Next, press the # PLAYERS button to select 1 or 2 players.

NOTE: If the # PLAYERS button is not pressed, the game automatically runs in “two player” mode.

Press the ON / START / NEW GAME button to begin.

TWO PLAYERS

The side of the game with the ON / START / NEW GAME button is for Player One. The opposite side is for Player Two.

Block

5 rows of

cleared lines

The player to go first is chosen by the game randomly. One of the five PIECE INDICATORS will light up on player's side of the game. The player must begin with this shape. Grab the TETRIMINO piece and drop it into the Tetris Tower game before the TIMER runs out.

You'll also notice that another PIECE INDICATOR is flashing. This is the next piece your opponent will have to play.

NOTE: If only one PIECE INDICATOR is lit and flashing, this shaped TETRIMINO will be used twice in a row by you and your opponent.

If you drop your TETRIMINO after your time has run out, the other player will get to drop two pieces in a row, giving him or her an advantage.

The object of the game is to create as many solid lines across as possible. When you create a solid line across the tower, you score a point. Indicate this by moving the individual LINE SCORE LEVER toward you.

The game is over when the TETRIMINOES are stacked all the way to the top of the tower. Find out who won by counting the LINE SCORE LEVERS and see who got the most lines.

ONE PLAYER

This is played the exact same way but without taking turns. See how many lines you can create in one game. You still have to place the TETRIMINOES into the tower before the TIMER runs out. If you don't beat the TIMER four times, your game will end. Good Luck!
