How to play Block Puzzle
Bring your attention to one round of Block Puzzle. Place pieces and clear rows/columns until no offered shape fits. Choose a clear next step rather than rushing through the instructions. Read the objective before making your first input. Use the example below to understand a decision.
Place shapes on an 8×8 board and clear full lines. The round ends when none of the current shapes fits.
A useful comparison
Compare the worked example with your own position. Use the reasoning, not an answer copied from a different board. Notice the feedback after each input.
Your goal
Place pieces and clear rows/columns until no offered shape fits. Use the instructions to see which actions move you towards it. Follow this game’s rules rather than another version’s.

Controls
Select a piece, then a board cell. Keep the playing area visible while using these controls. Look at the feedback after the action.
A useful example
One placement can clear both a row and a column. Your next round may have a different position, so inspect it before acting. Look for the relevant detail.
Watch out for this
Pieces cannot rotate in this edition. A different version of the game may use a different rule. Choose one rule to keep in mind for this round. Apply it consistently rather than guessing what another version might allow.
