Super Tetris 3 (スーパーテトリス3) is the third and final entry in Bullet Proof Software's Tetris trilogy, which began with the Famicom Tetris and continued with Tetris 2 + Bombliss/Super Tetris 2 + BomBliss.
This game uses SRS, but without wallkicks, as well as non-standard piece colors. Randomizer is apparently memoryless, or close to it.
The game does have lock delay, uses step reset, and has smooth fall and rotate animation, just like The New Tetris (with all of its problems with overhangs)
Standard Tetris
This is either Endless (the standard Tetris) or Standard. Standard has 25 lines to clear to advance to the next level, and clears the screen for each level. It also gives three lives, allowing two Top outs without ending the game. Standard plays like the original BPS Famicom version of Tetris did, with better, more modernized controls.
Magicaliss
The Tetrominoes that are dropped onto the play field have a color, red, green, or blue, which can be changed by rotating 4 times in the same direction. Clearing a line that is one solid color erases all blocks that match the color. There are also wild blocks, which count as all colors, but are not removed by a single color clear, and smaller, grey blocks, which are never removed in a line clear. The only way to remove a grey block is to do a single color line clear with no grey blocks in it, which converts all grey blocks to the color. The game features cascade gravity after a single color line clear. Again, endless and standard are available.
Sparkliss
Sparkliss plays very similarly to Bombliss from Tetris 2 + Bombliss and Super Tetris 2 + BomBliss and in several ways is considered a sequel to it. The primary change between Bombliss and Sparkliss is that the "bombs" explode in a cross-shape, only erasing in their column and row with more lines completed extending the length of the electricity launched by the bombs. Any square surrounded with explosions also vanish. As with Bombliss, there is both a contest and a puzzle mode.
Familiss
Familiss is a two to four-player version of Tetris with special powers:
This was the first Tetris mode for more than two players, predating Tetris X, Tetrinet, Tetris 64, Tetris 4D, and The New Tetris. Involving three or four players requires a Multitap.
