Super Tetris


 * lock delay: no; wall kick: no; rotation: J, L, T bounding box and S, Z, I 2-state


 * The player starts with 50 tetrominoes and, as in Bombliss, loses one tetromino for each tetromino that drops.
 * Clearing 1, 2, 3, or 4 lines adds a few tetrominoes and inserts a rectangular piece containing 2, 4, 8, or 12 bombs before the next piece.
 * The player can shift and rotate the bombs as they fall.


 * The object is to clear garbage. There are about 3 or 4 preset patterns randomly chosen from for each level.


 * Clearing a line below the center of the playfield causes the blocks below it to move up.
 * Once the solid floor reaches the center line, the screen is cleared with a bonus for remaining tetrominoes, and then a "bonus for low puzzle" like that of Klax, and the next screen is loaded. Any bombs from the line clear are dropped on the next level, and the current "next piece" is maintained.


 * It is possible to completely clear a line in the lower playfield using bombs. If this is done, the lines below move up, just as with a normal line clear.


 * There are power-ups in the preset garbage.


 * They must be activated with a bomb; clearing a line containing a power-up will destroy it.


 * The "5", "10", and "15" power-ups add points.
 * The "detonator" powerup destroys the blocks adjacent to it.
 * The "bomb" powerup transforms your lext tetromino into bombs.
 * The "bubble" powerup clears all blocks above it in the lower playfield.
 * The "lightning" powerup clears the line containing it.
 * The "box" powerup fills in all blocks above it in the lower playfield.
 * The "line" powerup summons an I piece that drops before the current "next piece".


 * Most decent players will have little difficulty until level 8. The lack of lock delay and wallkicks makes the highest two difficulty levels (9 and 10) extrememly challenging.


 * DAS is unusually fast for a game of this age, and is not dependent on keyboard repeat. It is not nearly as fast as a TGM series game though. It is also impossible to tap faster than the DAS, or rotate faster than the auto repeat rotate rate. Also, the delay for auto shift and auto rotate is very small.


 * This game gives you the most unusual ability to drop a piece one square diagonally down, by pressing 1 or 3 on the numeric keypad, or z or c on the "qweasdzxc" matrix. This is most usefull to tag an otherwise unreachable powerup with a single bomb, though it can also slip a piece into an otherwise impossible position.
