Read before your next round of Block Puzzle
Read the aim of Block Puzzle, then make your first move. Place pieces and clear rows/columns until no offered shape fits. Look at what changes after your first action. Check the rule that explains your first action. Choose a clear next step rather than rushing through the instructions.
Place shapes on an 8×8 board and clear full lines. The round ends when none of the current shapes fits.
