HOW TO PLAY
Begin by emptying any
TETRIMINOES left in the game by
holding the game upside down and
spreading them out beside the
game. Then press the ON / START /
NEW GAME button to wake the
game from SLEEP MODE or press
and hold the ON / START / NEW
GAME to start a new game.
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.
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!
