Spin Blocks

Clear lines like always — but every few lines the whole well turns a quarter turn, and your stack falls into its new floor.

The rules

  1. 1
    Stack and clear

    Pieces fall; complete a full row to clear it.

  2. 2
    The well turns

    After every few cleared lines the entire well rotates a quarter turn. Whatever you built now lies on its side.

  3. 3
    Survive

    The game ends when a new piece cannot enter. Score for lines, more for several at once.

Controls

Keyboard
←/→ move, ↑ rotate, ↓ soft drop, Space hard drop.
Touch
Swipe left/right to move, tap to rotate, swipe down to drop.

Tips

  • Keep the stack low before a rotation.
  • A flat top makes a flat wall.
The twist

Every few lines the well rotates 90°. Gravity stays down; your stack does not.

A falling-block classic where the well itself turns a quarter turn every few lines, so your stack becomes the wall and the floor becomes a cliff.

Common questions

How is Spin Blocks different from Tetris?

The well itself rotates a quarter turn every few cleared lines. Gravity keeps pulling down, so the stack you carefully flattened becomes a wall, and your old wall becomes the floor.

Is Spin Blocks free?

Yes, free in the browser with no download. The daily seed is the same for everyone, so the leaderboard compares like with like.

How do I score more in Spin Blocks?

Clear several rows at once, and keep the stack low in the lines before a rotation. Height that looks safe now becomes an overhang the moment the well turns.

Does the well rotate on a timer?

No, it rotates on cleared lines. You always know when the turn is coming, so you can hold off a clear until the stack is ready for it.
