Rules - How to Erase Blocks (TETRIS BLAST)
The objective in Tetris Blast is to eliminate all the blocks on the screen. Arrange falling blocks to make complete horizontal lines.
•
If one bomb block is in the horizontal line, all three blocks next to the bomb block (left and right) will explode and disappear.
•
If there is more than one bomb in the horizontal line, each bomb will eliminate three blocks to its immediate left and right.
•
If two or more horizontal lines are completed at the same time, then each bomb will explode and eliminate three blocks to the left and right, as well as one row above and below.
•
If four bombs are combined to make a square, then they will turn into a mega bomb. If a mega bomb explodes, it will eliminate all blocks within a four block radius of the bomb - meaning four blocks to the left and right, as well as up and down, and everything in between.
•
If you complete a horizontal line that does not have a bomb in it, there is no explosion, so none of the blocks will disappear.
Contest Mode Objective
In this mode, there are 100 random blocks which will fall down. Try to eliminate all of the existing blocks on the screen using as few of the falling blocks as possible.
