A Tetris variant where 3+ tetrominoes of same shape touching disappear?


Tetrominoes would always retain their shape and can only disappear in their entirety.

Filling rows would not be required to clear pieces.

What do you think of this Tetris variant?

If you did that, you could just sort the pieces into stacks at the bottom until you had 3 of them. You'd have to come up with a gimmick to prevent people from being able to do that indefinitely.

Something like making the play area too narrow to stick every type of piece side by side at once. Or having the 3 pieces turn into a random piece. That sort of thing.

That seems closer to Puyo Puyo.

Go build a demo and try it.
