A rotation system broadly represents where and how tetrominoes spawn, how they rotate, and what wall kicks they may perform. Different rotation systems exist through a broad spectrum of games, some having their own unique system, others in a series may change only a little. Notable systems:

• Original Rotation System, used by the first Tetris games. Also called ORS.
• Super Rotation System (or SRS)
  • In Tetris at tetris.com, due to the nature of the mouse movement, it is possible to get 3-kicks, 180, and O rotation.
• Arika Rotation System (or ARS)
• Sega Rotation System
• Nintendo Rotation System
• DTET Rotation System
• Tetris Best rotation system (or TBRS), very flexible
  • Tetris Best 2 rotation system (or TB2R), only has floorkicks
• Tetris Perfect rotation system (or TPRS), condemned
  • Tetris Return rotation system, approved version of the above, as side 3-kick tests were moved behind up to 2 floorkicks
